Description
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) worked to develop a fish hatchery at the Park County Hatchery near Cody, Wyoming.
“The 1935-1936 biennium was a heyday of improvements and construction. … WPA labor built a new log hatchery building with 36 steel troughs, water system improvements, and landscaping at the Cody hatchery.”
The location and status of this project is presently unknown to Living New Deal.
