Description
The Civil Works Administration (CWA) constructed a fish hatchery in Teton County, Wyoming.
Casper Star-Tribune: “The Teton county hatchery was built by the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries, as a CWA project and will be in full operation this season. It will be of immense value in keeping the waters of the Jackson Hole region supplied, except Jackson lake, whose deep waters are the natural habitat of huge Mackinaws and Natives, the former weighing up to 36 pounds.”
The location and status of this project are unknown to Living New Deal.
