Mount Whitney Fish Hatchery
The Mount Whitney Fish Hatchery, located in Independence, California, in the United States, is an historic fish hatchery that has played an important role in the preservation of the golden trout, California's state fish.
==Construction==
The facility was built and operated by the California State Fish & Game Commission, now known as the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Starting in 1915, the citizens of Independence began a local fundraising drive to purchase a site for a proposed state fish hatchery. $1,500.00 was raised, and an ideal site was purchased on Oak Creek, just north of the town. Fish and Game Commissioner M. J. Connell instructed the design team led by Charles Dean of the State Department of Engineering "to design a building that would match the mountains, would last forever, and would be a showplace for all time." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Independence, California: Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery History )〕 The architectural style they chose is Tudor Revival. Construction began in March, 1916, with a final budget of approximately $60,000.00. The walls of the building are constructed using of native granite collected within a quarter mile (400 m) of the site. The walls are two to three feet (600 to 900 mm) thick.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oak Creek - Whitney Fish Hatchery )〕 The roof is red Spanish tile made in Lincoln, California.
