In order to transport fish from Stamp Program-funded projects, and to shorten the time needed to transport salmon from Central Valley salmon hatcheries to release locations in the San Francisco Bay area, it became necessary to purchase salmon transport tank trailers. As they roll along the highways, these gleaming trailers, emblazoned with PCFFA and DFG logos, and the message “Sending Salmon to Sea,” not only improve transport efficiency, but also help inform the public of the Salmon Stamp Program. Three trailers were initially purchased with stamp funds for $30,000 each. Two more trailers were purchased later, bringing the total to five.
