Summary

This spring the Council requested recommendations on the development of a mainstem plan for the Council's Columbia River Basin Fish and Wildlife Program.

As stated in the 2000 Fish and Wildlife Program amendments adopted last fall, "This plan will develop standards for systemwide coordination, such as flow regimes, spill, reservoir elevations, water retention times, passage modifications at mainstem dams, and operational requirements to protect mainstem spawning and rearing areas."

The Council is inviting public comment on the recommendations through August 1, 2001. It may be helpful to review the 2000 Fish and Wildlife Program for background information and to understand the context for comments on the mainstem plan recommendations.

The recommendations are also available by contacting the Council office at 503-222-5161 or 1-800-452-5161 to request a CD ROM or a hard copy (document 2001-16).

Submit comments by clicking the email link at the bottom of each recommendation, or write to Mark Walker, Director of Public Affairs, Northwest Power Planning Council, 851 SW 6th Avenue, Suite 1100, Portland, OR 97204. If submitting comments in writing, please indicate the recommendation number in your comment.
