  • The Salmon Summit1
    THE SALMON SUMMIT1 Introduction The story of the Salmon Summit is the prologue to a story that will continue unfolding in the halls of Congress, federal agencies and the courts for years to come. It describes an effort to collaboratively develop a plan that would protect several species and subspecies of salmon in the Pacific Northwest, thereby precluding the necessity of having the species listed under the Endangered Species Act. Since the species were ultimately listed, the periodic collaborations that continue under the guise of the Salmon Summit are focused on developing a viable recovery plan for the various species. The plight of the Pacific Northwest salmon species is not a new issue. In fact, during the 1980's, more than $1.5 billion was spent on solving the problem, without much success. The issue is made more complex by the unique claims and rights of Indian tribes to the fishery resource. The issue is also fraught with tensions between the federal government and regional interests, with regional interests striving hard to maintain their control over the issue. It is clear to all involved that if nothing is done soon to protect the remaining salmon, then the various species will go extinct. Background The Columbia River Basin and the Salmon The Columbia River has its headwaters in Canada and is over 1250 miles long (see Figure 1). Its main tributary, the Snake River, is over 1000 miles long, and the total length of the Columbia and its tributaries is about 14,000 miles. The entire Columbia River basin is larger than the country of France, covering 260,000 acres.

As shown below, the proposed channel change from Channel 10 to Channel 16 would result in a substantial increase in signal receivability for KTVL’s core viewers, and enable viewers to receive the Station’s signal with a significantly smaller antenna. The proposed channel substitution would serve the public interest because KTVL has had a long history of dealing with severe reception problems. The reception issues were 1 47 C.F.R. § 1.401. 2 See Engineering Statement of John E.
