The Allegheny National Fish Hatchery, located in Warren, Pennsylvania produces lake trout for restoration in Lakes Erie and Ontario. The hatchery is one of 11 National Fish Hatcheries throughout the Northeast Region working to restore, enhance and maintain heritage fisheries for the American people.
The hatchery produces healthy fish for stocking. The ultimate goal of the stocking and restoration program is to restore "self-sustaining" fish populations within the ecosystem, where we no longer need to supplement the fisheries with fish produced at the hatchery.
