 to many populations of native salmon   
and steelhead4  7#b7 ,many of the native
 salmon and steelhead populations in    
,california are listed under the

doubling of natural production of       
,central ,valley populations of         
anadromous fish within #aj years4  7#d7 
,striped bass are anadromous fish       
indigenous to the ,east ,coast of the   
,united ,states and are not native to   
the ,state of ,california4  7#e7        

,striped bass were included in the      
,,cvpia's fish doubling goal even though
 they are not a native species4  7#f7   
,striped bass prey on native salmon and 
steelhead4  7#g7 ,predation poses a     
serious threat to federally protected   
juvenile salmon and other native fish in
 ,california4  7#h7 ,according to the   
,national ,marine ,fisheries ,service1  
reducing abundance of striped bass and  
other non-native predators must be      
achieved to prevent extinction of       
,central ,valley salmon and steelhead or
 to prevent the species from declining  
irreversibly4  7#i7 ,therefore1 the     
,,cvpia's fish-doubling goal for two    
competing species is contradictory and  
counterproductive for salmon and
