    January 2005 Citation: KVRI Burbot Committee. 2005. Kootenai River/Kootenay Lake Conservation Strategy. Prepared by the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho with assistance from S. P. Cramer and Associates. 77 pp. plus appendices. Conservation strategies delineate reasonable actions that are believed necessary to protect, rehabilitate, and maintain species and populations that have been recognized as imperiled, but not federally listed as threatened or endangered under the US Endangered Species Act. This Strategy resulted from cooperative efforts of U.S. and Canadian Federal, Provincial, and State agencies, Native American Tribes, First Nations, local Elected Officials, Congressional and Governor’s staff, and other important resource stakeholders, including members of the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative. This Conservation Strategy does not necessarily represent the views or the official positions or approval of all individuals or agencies involved with its formulation. This Conservation Strategy is subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of conservation tasks. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Kootenai Tribe of Idaho would like to thank the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative (KVRI) and the KVRI Burbot Committee for their contributions to this Burbot Conservation Strategy. The Tribe also thanks the Boundary County Historical Society and the residents of Boundary County for providing local historical information provided in Appendix 2. The Tribe also thanks Ray Beamesderfer and Paul Anders of S.P. Cramer and Associates for their assistance in preparing this document. Funding was provided by the Bonneville Power Administration through the Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s Fish and Wildlife Program, and by the Idaho Congressional Delegation through a congressional appropriation administered to the Kootenai Tribe by the Department of Interior.

  • Mitochondrial DNA Analysis of Burbot Stocks in the Kootenai River Basin of British Columbia, Montana, and Idaho
    Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 128:868-874, 1999 © Copyright by the American Fisheries Society 1999 Mitochondrial DNA Analysis of Burbot Stocks in the Kootenai River Basin of British Columbia, Montana, and Idaho VAUGHN L. PARAGAMIAN Idaho Department of Fish and Game, 2750 Kathleen Avenue, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho 83815, USA MADISON S. POWELL* AND JOYCE C. FALER Aquaculture Research Institute, University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho 83844-2260, USA Abstract.-Differences in mitochondrial haplotype frequency were examined among burbot Lota lota collected from four areas within the Kootenai River Basin of British Columbia, Montana and Idaho. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify three gene regions of the mi- tochondria) genome: NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (ND1), NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2), and NADH dehydrogenase subunits 5 and 6 combined (ND5,6). Amplified DNA was screened for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Simple haplotypes resulting from RFLPs in a single gene region were combined into composite haplotypes. The distribution of composite haplotypes and their frequencies correspond to areas of the Kootenay River basin above and below a presumptive geographic barrier, Kootenai Falls, Montana, and suggest spatially seg- regated populations. A test of geographic heterogeneity among haplotype frequency distributions was highly significant (P < 0.001) when a Monte Carlo simulation was used to approximate a X2 test. Two populations, one above and one below Kootenai Falls emerged when a neighbor-joining method was used to infer a phylogenetic tree based on estimates of nucleotide divergence between all pairs of sample locations. These analyses indicate that burbot below Kootenai Falls form a separate genetic group from burbot above the falls and further suggests that Libby Dam, which created Lake Koocanusa, is not an effective barrier segregating burbot above Kootenai Falls.

  • Effects of Dams on Native Americans in the Columbia River Basin Elliott
    Dammed Societies: Effects of Dams on Native Americans in the Columbia River Basin Elliott McGill Senior Capstone Project Faculty Advisors: Dr. Jamie Dolan, Dr. Jeremy Johnson, and Dr. David McCanna McGill 1 Abstract Since dam construction began in the New Deal Era, it has represented a dominance of humankind over nature. These massive structures have harnessed, collected, and distributed electricity from the rivers they hold back and allow humans to reap the benefits of that cycle. One of the areas where dams are particularly apparent is in the Columbia River Basin in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. While the dams in this region certainly have allowed the area to develop and build by using the electricity collected by these dams, they have also had several negative effects on the tribal people in the region who once fished the mighty Columbia during its populous salmon runs and relied on the salmon for nutritional, economic, and cultural reasons. This project seeks to examine the costs of human advancement when it comes to dams, and will do so by studying three dams located in the Columbia River Basin: The Bonneville Dam, The Dalles Dam, and The Grand Coulee Dam. These dams will be studied using Black’s Theory of Law as a framework to examine the manner in which law was applied to each case. The research finds that although the dams certainly provide a useful resource to the people of the region, it has had negative effects on the Native American people who depended on the river.

  • The Columbia Basin Tribes and First Nations Jointly Developed This Paper To
    Agenda Item E.2 Attachment 1 (Electronic Only) March 2021 a | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY he Columbia Basin tribes and First Nations jointly developed this paper to Tinform the U.S. and Canadian Entities, federal governments, and other re- gional sovereigns and stakeholders on how anadromous salmon and resident fish can be reintroduced into the upper Columbia River Basin. Reintroduction and res- toration of fish passage could be achieved through a variety of mechanisms, includ- ing the current effort to modernize the Columbia River Treaty (Treaty). Restoring fish passage and reintroducing anadromous fish should be investigated and imple- mented as a key element of integrating ecosystem-based function into the Treaty. Anadromous fish reintroduction is critical to restoring native peoples’ cultural, harvest, spiritual values, and First Foods taken through bilateral river development for power and flood risk management. Reintroduction is also an important facet of ecosystem adaptation to climate change as updated research indicates that only the Canadian portion of the basin may be snowmelt-dominated in the future, making it a critical refugium for fish as the Columbia River warms over time. This transboundary reintroduction proposal focuses on adult and juvenile fish pas- sage at Chief Joseph and Grand Coulee dams in the U.S. and at Hugh Keenleyside, Brilliant, Waneta and Seven Mile dams in Canada. Reintroduction would occur incrementally, beginning with a series of preliminary planning, research, and ex- perimental pilot studies designed to inform subsequent reintroduction and passage strategies. Long-term elements of salmon reintroduction would be adaptable and include permanent passage facilities, complemented by habitat improvement, ar- tificial propagation, monitoring, and evaluation.

    POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON BC HYDRO’S WATER RESOURCES Georg Jost: Ph.D., Senior Hydrologic Modeller, BC Hydro Frank Weber; M.Sc., P. Geo., Lead, Runoff Forecasting, BC Hydro 1 EXecutiVE Summary Global climate change is upon us. Both natural cycles and anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions influence climate in British Columbia and the river flows that supply the vast majority of power that BC Hydro generates. BC Hydro’s climate action strategy addresses both the mitigation of climate change through reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, and adaptation to climate change by understanding the risks and magnitude of potential climatic changes to our business today and in the future. As part of its climate change adaptation strategy, BC Hydro has undertaken internal studies and worked with some of the world’s leading scientists in climatology, glaciology, and hydrology to determine how climate change affects water supply and the seasonal timing of reservoir inflows, and what we can expect in the future. While many questions remain unanswered, some trends are evident, which we will explore in this document. 2 IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON BC HYDRO-MANAGED WATER RESOURCES W HAT we haVE seen so far » Over the last century, all regions of British Columbia »F all and winter inflows have shown an increase in became warmer by an average of about 1.2°C. almost all regions, and there is weaker evidence »A nnual precipitation in British Columbia increased by for a modest decline in late-summer flows for those about 20 per cent over the last century (across Canada basins driven primarily by melt of glacial ice and/or the increases ranged from 5 to 35 per cent).
