Description Because of the serious and ongoing decline in the population of the state’s once largest herring stock, the Department of Ecology and Western Washington University have been developing and validating herring toxicity tests since the 2000 spawning season. The herring test development effort has produced methods for a 96-hour acute survival test, an embryo survival & development test, and a larval 7-day survival & growth test. The report describes the test development and validation results.
