The fish collection of the School of Fisheries of the University of Washington consists of over 200,000 specimens and constitutes the only repository in the country with archival storage of North Pacific and Bering Sea fishes. The University has pledged its sustained support in maintaining this nationally important collection at a high level of activity. The University's long-term commitment is evidenced by its plans to provide in excess of $1.4 million over the next six years for new facilities to house the collection. NSF support through this award will augment the University's funds by supporting a collection manager for three years, providing one-half of the cost of a compactorized shelving system for the specimens, and facilitating a computerized catalog for the collection. At the end of the three-year grant period, the University will assusme the cost of the collection manager's salary, and it also will provide the remaining half of the compactorized shelving.

华盛顿大学渔业学院的鱼类收藏包括20多万个标本，是该国唯一一个拥有北太平洋和白令海鱼类档案的储存库。联合国大学已保证继续提供支助，使这一具有全国重要性的收藏保持在高水平的活动中。大学计划在未来六年内提供超过140万美元的新设施来容纳这些藏品，这证明了它的长期承诺。美国国家科学基金会通过该奖项的支持将通过支持一名收集经理三年来增加大学的资金，为标本提供紧凑货架系统的一半成本，并促进收集的计算机目录。在三年赠款期结束时，联合国大学将承担收集管理员的薪金费用，并将提供剩余一半的压缩书架。
