the Problem<br />
the current program is housed in a dilapidated, structurallycompromised<br />
building woefully inadequate for the technical<br />
requirements of this program.<br />
getting this program into a new facility will ensure:<br />
• access to this important career path and trained<br />
workforce.<br />
• Continued operation of whatcom Creek & whatcom Falls<br />
Hatcheries.<br />
• Continuation of the salmon run on whatcom Creek.<br />
• invaluable north Puget sound habitat restoration &<br />
enrichment of our salmon, trout, steelhead, and shellfish<br />
resources.<br />
• enhancement of <strong>Bellingham</strong>’s Maritime Heritage Park<br />
by offering a venue that showcases our valued fisheries,<br />
shellfish, & maritime industries.<br />
BtC is now actively engaged in a campaign to raise the<br />
funds necessary to construct a new building in the Maritime<br />
Heritage Park for the BtC Fisheries and aquaculture sciences<br />
Program.<br />
Join <strong>BTC</strong> in supporting our marine heritage,<br />
and the fisheries and aquatic industries by building the Center<br />
for Fisheries and Aquaculture Sciences…providing career<br />
opportunities, preserving our shellfish and finfish aquaculture<br />
resources, and enhancing our marine environment.<br />
