Snettisham Hatchery was constructed by the State of Alaska in 1980 and operated by the Department of Fish and Game until DIPAC took over operation of the facility in July of 1996. The hatchery is currently permitted to incubate up to 33.5 million sockeye salmon for various fry and smolt projects. Salmon produced from the Snettisham Hatchery contribute to commercial fishermen, subsistence users and hatchery cost recovery.
