Little White Salmon U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Little White Salmon National Fish Hatchery Welcome Welcome to Little White Salmon National Fish Hatchery on the beautiful Little White Salmon River—a mini-gorge within the Columbia Gorge. The main visitor area is at the upper hatchery, beyond the bridge. Here you will find the visitor center, fish ladder, overlook, and parking. Inside the visitor center are exhibits, and public restrooms. The hatchery spawning operation can be viewed from the exhibits room. Adult salmon holding ponds are located inside this building. Viewing windows are downstairs in the basement. Watching salmon swim is soothing. The hatchery is open daily from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm. Here are key times to visit: • May 1: fish ladder open for spring Chinook adults The adult holding pond is inside • May - August: spring Chinook the spawning/ salmon viewing exhibits building.

Hatchery purpose Established in 1896, Little White Salmon National Fish Hatchery (NFH) is the oldest working hatchery on the Columbia today. The Columbia is a Chinook salmon river. Here we raise two kinds: upriver brights (fall), Wikipedia and spring Chinook. The hatchery operates as dictated by sound salmon science, several federal agency policies, congressionally enacted laws, and ratified treaties. Columbia River salmon hatchery mandates are complex and multi-layered with numerous “co-managing” stakeholders.

This action opened habitat to migratory fish for the first time in 100 years. The White Salmon Working Group was formed to create plans for fish salvage in preparation for fish recolonization and to prescribe the actions necessary to restore anadromous salmonid populations in the White Salmon River after Condit Dam removal. Studies conducted by work group members and others served to inform management decisions. Management options for individual species were considered, including natural recolonization, introduction of a neighboring stock, hatchery supplementation, and monitoring natural recolonization for some time period to assess the need for hatchery supplementation.

  • The Wild Cascades
    THE WILD CASCADES Fall, 1984 2 The Wild Cascades PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE ONCE THE LINES ARE DRAWN, THE BATTLE IS NOT OVER The North Cascades Conservation Council has developed a reputation for consistent, hard-hitting, responsible action to protect wildland resources in the Washington Cascades. It is perhaps best known for leading the fight to preserve and protect the North Cascades in the North Cascades National Park, the Pasayten and Glacier Peak Wilderness Areas, and the Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreation Areas. Despite the recent passage of the Washington Wilderness Act, many areas which deserve and require wilderness designation remain unprotected. One of the goals of the N3C must be to assure protection for these areas. In this issue of the Wild Cascades we have analyzed the Washington Wilderness Act to see what we won and what still hangs in the balance (page ). The N3C will continue to fight to establish new wilderness areas, but there is also a new challenge. Our expertise is increasingly being sought by government agencies to assist in developing appropriate management plans and to support them against attempts to undermine such plans. The invitation to participate more fully in management activities will require considerable effort, but it represents a challenge and an opportunity that cannot be ignored. If we are to meet this challenge we will need members who are either knowledgable or willing to learn about an issue and to guide the Board in its actions. The Spring issue of the Wild Cascades carried a center section with two requests: 1) volunteers to assist and guide the organization on various issues; and 2) payment of dues.

This report is organized to present the individual requirements of the Surrender Order of December 16, 2010 along with modifications prescribed by the Order on Rehearing, Denying Stay, and Dismissing Extension of Time Request (“Order on Rehearing”) issued by the FERC on April 21, 2011. For each requirement of these orders, actions taken by PacifiCorp and the results are described to provide a comprehensive review of the completion of all required actions, many of which have been documented in individual reports filed with the FERC. 1. BACKGROUND On October 21, 1999, PacifiCorp filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission an application for amendment of license and approval of offer of settlement (“Surrender Application”) to surrender the Condit Hydroelectric Project (P-2342) license and decommission the project. On December 16, 2010, the FERC issued the Surrender Order. On January 14, 2011, PacifiCorp filed with the FERC a Request for Clarification and Rehearing and Motion for Stay. The FERC responded to the request issuing the Order on Rehearing on April 21, 2011. In the Surrender Order and Order on Rehearing, the FERC set forth a number of conditions that PacifiCorp was to undertake and complete to remove Condit dam and restore the project area.

By this act, the salmon gained The Salmon of Knowledge the world's knowledge. The first person to eat of its flesh would in turn gain this knowledge. The poet Finn Eces or Finegas spent seven years fishing for The Salmon of Knowledge salmon. Finally Finn caught the salmon and gave the fish to Fionn, his servant and son of Cumhaillwith instructions to cook it but on no account to eat any of it. Fionn cooked the salmon, turning The Salmon of Knowledge over and over, but when he touched the fish with his thumb to see if it was cooked, he burnt his finger on a drop of hot cooking fish fat. Fionn sucked on his burned finger to ease the pain. Little did Fionn know that all of the salmon's wisdom had been concentrated into that one drop of fish fat. When he brought the cooked meal to Finn Eces, his master saw that the boy's eyes shone with a previously unseen The Salmon of Knowledge. Finn Eces asked Fionn if he had eaten any of the salmon. Answering no, the boy explained what had happened. Finn Eces realized that Fionn had received the wisdom of the salmon, so gave him the rest of the fish to eat.

The Final SEIS supplements the following National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents: Condit Hydroelectric Project Final Environmental Impact Statement, FERC No. 2342-005, Washington (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, October 1996); and Final Supplemental Final Environmental Impact Statement, Condit Hydroelectric Project, Washington, FERC Project No. 2342, (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, June 2002). As part of the SEIS, Ecology is adopting these documents pursuant to provisions of WAC 197-11-610 and 630. The aforementioned documents identify and evaluate a range of reasonable alternatives to the proposal, identify probable significant impacts associated with the proposal and its alternatives, and address mitigation measures to be imposed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
