Technology Transfer

The USDA-USFS Boise Aquatic Sciences Lab Technology Transfer program is a shared program established in 1990 between Forest Service regions 1, 4, and the Rocky Mountain Research Station. Its focus is on improving the communication between researchers and practitioners/managers to meet two primary objectives:

1. Provide timely awareness and delivery of relevant knowledge, technical tools and procedures to assist land managers and practitioners address current and emerging fisheries/aquatic issues.

2. Ensure researchers and practitioners/managers are working together to define knowledge gaps and needed research, tools and procedures.
