  • SECTION 1: Pend Oreille COUNTY
    SECTION 1: Pend Oreille COUNTY DESCRIPTION OF PEND OREILLE COUNTY Just as the Rocky Mountains plunge into the United States on their majestic march from British Columbia, a western range called the Selkirk Mountains, runs in close parallel down into Idaho and Washington. This rugged spur offers exposed segments of the North American Continent and the Kootenay Arc, tectonic plates that began colliding over a billion years ago, and provides exceptional year-round settings for a variety of recreational opportunities. This lesser range is home to bighorn sheep, elk, moose, deer, bear, cougar, bobcats, mountain caribou, and several large predatory birds such as bald eagles and osprey. Not far from where these Selkirk Mountains end, Pend Oreille County begins its association with the Pend Oreille River. Pend Oreille County is a relatively small county that looks like the number “1” set in the northeast corner of the State of Washington. Pend Oreille County is 66 miles long and 22 miles wide. British Columbia is across the international border to the north. Spokane County and the regional trade center, the City of Spokane, lie to the south. Idaho’s Bonner and Boundary counties form the eastern border, and Stevens County, Washington forms the western border. (For a map of Pend Oreille County, see Appendix A) Encompassing more than 1400 square miles, most of Pend Oreille County takes the form of a long, forested river valley. This area, known as the Okanogan Highlands, is unique since it is the only area in the country where plant and animal species from both the Rocky Mountain Region and the Cascade Mountain region can be found.

  • July 27, 2000 Dear
    July 27, 2000 Dear: In December 1999, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) received a request from the Bonneville Power Administration, Army Corps of Engineers, and the Bureau of Reclamation (Bureau) for formal consultation under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act on the effects of the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) on threatened and endangered species and their critical habitat. In response to that request, we have prepared the attached draft biological opinion. Although it is our policy to limit the distribution of draft biological opinions to Federal action agencies and any applicants, we and the action agencies believe it prudent to provide you with our draft opinion in light of widespread regional interest in this matter. In accordance with the implementing regulations under section 7, the Federal action agencies submitted a biological assessment (BA) evaluating the effects of the FCRPS on listed species and critical habitat. In addition to the BA, the action agencies’ request included a draft feasibility report/environmental impact statement, executive summary, and 18 technical appendices for the Lower Snake River Juvenile Salmon Migration Feasibility Study (draft FR/EIS). The draft FR/EIS describes four different alternatives for design and operation of the FCRPS for an unspecified duration and does not identify a preferred alternative. The alternatives focus on the design, operation and maintenance of the Lower Snake Project portion of the FCRPS, but effects from proposed changes in flow could occur throughout the Columbia Basin. Due to on-going analyses and information gathering processes related to the FCRPS, the BA describes a proposed action that has uncertainties regarding both the design and operation of facilities in the FCRPS.

THE CANADA-UNITED STATES CONTROVERSY OVER THE COLUMBIA RIVERf RALPH W. JOHNSON* In a comprehensive study of the recent dispute between Canada and the United States over the Columbia River, Professor Johnson traces its history through the birth of the Harmon doctrine in 1898, the signing of the Boundary Waters Treaty in 1909, and the first Canadianclaim to downstream benefits in the early 1950's. Against this background, he analyzes the negotiations and events-particu- larly the Canadianproposals to divert the Columbia into the Fraser, and to develop the Peace River instead of the Columbia-that culmi- nated in the Columbia River Treaty in 1961. Before Canadian ratification of the Treaty, however, additional problems presented by the split between the Provincial and National governments had to be resolved. Their resolution brought about the signing of a Protocol with the United States in 1964, as well as ratification of the Treaty.

    Hydropower Project Summary PEND OREILLE RIVER, WASHINGTON BOUNDARY HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT (P-2144) Photo: Rich Bowers, HRC This summary was produced by the Hydropower Reform Coalition and River Management Society Pend Oreille River, Washington PEND OREILLE RIVER, WASHINGTON BOUNDARY HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT (P-2144) DESCRIPTION: The Boundary hydroelectric project is located in a narrow canyon in the Selkirk Mountains in the northeast corner of Washington, about 10 miles north of the city of Metaline Falls and one mile south of the U.S.-Canada border. The Pend Oreille River is about 120 miles long from its origin at Lake Pend Oreille in Albeni Falls, Idaho to its confluence with the Columbia River in British Columbia, Canada. The Pend Oreille River system is highly regulated, with flows controlled by seven hydroelectric and storage projects upstream from Boundary dam, and two in Canada downstream from the project. The license for this project was issued in conjunction with the license surrender for the Sullivan Creek Project (P-2225) based on a comprehensive settlement. The Sullivan Creek project is located on Sullivan Creek, a tributary of the Pend Oreille River and is being decommissioned and the dam removed. The comprehensive agreement was signed by: City of Seattle (Seattle City and Light), Public Utility District No. 1 of Pend Oreille County (owner of the Sullivan creek project), US Forest Service (USFS), US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), National Park Service (NPS) , Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife (Washington DFW), Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology), Kalispel Tribe, Selkirk Conservation Alliance, The Lands Council, American Whitewater, Town of Cusack, Washington, Rick Larsen, and Al Six.
