The Capilano River Hatchery, established in 1971, plays a crucial role in bolstering declining salmon stocks in the Capilano River, which were adversely affected by the construction of the Cleveland Dam. Annually, the hatchery attracts nearly 250,000 visitors and is recognized for its significant contributions of coho and chinook salmon to the recreational fishery in Burrard Inlet.

In addition to fish production, the hatchery emphasizes stewardship and education, engaging in various partnerships, including those with Indigenous communities. The facility also monitors lake productivity and supports local fishing initiatives, ensuring a sustainable approach to fisheries management.
