Abstract "Miller Lake was chemically treated with toxaphene on September 16, 1958 to destroy a population of parasitic lamprey (E.tridentatus) and Tui Chub (Siphatelep bicolor). Toxaphene was applied at the rate of 0.04 ppm. No lamprey or fish have been collected in the lake since the chemical treatment. Work since 1959 has been in the form of testing the water for residual toxaphene and toxicity to trout. Materials and water were analyzed by Charlton Laboratories in Portland, Oregon by paper chromatography. The Agricultural Chemistry Department at Oregon State University conducted the majority of the analyses by gas chromatography. The detailed information on the chemical treatment was reported in a progress report February 13, 1959. Testing of Miller Lake will continue under Federal Aid Project No. F-20-D-20."
