I think that was an older study that tied run-off of the farms into the bay as culprit for poor spawn success. The chem's reacted with the oxygen in the water and caused problems for the fry. Since then, there was a massive undertaking to control run off.
In the past a lot of rain in the spring meant disaster for fish. Now I am not so sure that is still the case.
