The federal government would transfer ownership of the Clear Creek Hatchery and its equipment to the Nisqually Indian Tribe, allowing the tribe to operate the facility for fish production and management. This would give the tribe direct control over a resource that affects their fishing rights and ability to sustain salmon populations in their traditional territory. The transfer would shift responsibility for the hatchery's operations and maintenance from the federal government to the tribe.
