NOTES from the DESK of the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, TOD HEISLER Even an Eternal Optimist Like Me Is Enhancement Board Summer 2009 VOLUME 3 NUMBER 1 NEWSLETTER OF THE DESCHUTES RIVER CONSERVANCY The mission of the DRC: To restore streamflow and improve water quality in the Deschutes Basin. The McKenzie Canyon Conserved Water Project entailed piping 8 miles of a canal serving the Lower Bridge area located between Sisters and Redmond. The project will result in 6 cubic feet per second (cfs) of permanent streamflow restoration in Whychus Creek, a stream that is critical to the reintroduction of steelhead. The DRC has successfully restored over 15 cubic feet per second (cfs) to Whychus Creek, a small stream that used to run dry through the town of Sisters during summer months.

  • Crooked River Restoration
    9/27/2019 Crooked River ‐ Native Fish Society Region: Oregon District: Mid-Columbia Summary The Crooked River, in central Oregon, is a large tributary to the Deschutes River. It runs for approximately 155 miles and the basin drains nearly 4,300 square miles. Native Species Spring Chinook Salmon Summer Steelhead Redband Trout Bull-trout-esa-listed The Crooked River The Crooked River has three major headwater tributaries, the North Fork, South Fork, and Beaver Creek which join to make the mainstem as it flows through Paulina Valley. Further down, Bowman Dam, creates Prineville Reservoir. Below Bowman, eight miles of the river are designated Wild and Scenic as it traverses a steep desert canyon. In Prineville it is joined by Ochoco Creek, soon to collect McKay Creek and several smaller tributaries. It empties into Lake Billy Chinook, a large impoundment on the Deschutes created by Round Butte Dam. This dam inundates nine miles of historic river channel. The Crooked River and its tributaries were once a major spawning ground for anadromous fish such as spring Chinook Salmon, Steelhead trout, and Pacific lamprey. Non-migratory fish such as Redband trout and Bull trout, as well as various non-game fish were also abundant. Fish populations began to drop in the early 19th century due to irrigation withdrawals. https://nativefishsociety.org/watersheds/crooked‐river 1 9/27/2019 Crooked River ‐ Native Fish Society The Cove Power Plant on the lower Crooked River, built around 1910, effectively blocked upriver migration of spring Chinook salmon during low stream flow conditions. In addition, Ochoco Dam, built in 1920 on Ochoco Creek, blocked fish passage completely.

  • What's Happening on the Deschutes River
    The Plain Facts What’s happening on the Deschutes River The Deschutes River system is an Oregon icon, treasured for its scenic beauty, the life-giving water it brings to the high desert, and its world-class salmon, steelhead and trout fisheries. But the river and its tributaries are more than that: they’re sacred to the people of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and an integral part of the culture and economy of the region. As co-owners of the Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project, Portland General Electric and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs pay close attention to the health of the river. We know that apparent changes to the Deschutes — some good, some troubling — have raised questions among river users in the region, so we want to share what we know about what’s happening on the Deschutes. This pamphlet addresses some of the concerns and misconceptions we’ve heard. The information is based on robust and high quality scientific studies. You can find more at portlandgeneral.com/deschutes. We also welcome questions at [email protected] or 541-325-0960. Management You may have heard: The plain fact is… The Deschutes River is in The Deschutes River is not in decline. a state of rapid decline. • River temperatures have returned to their historic, seasonal patterns. • Fall Chinook are migrating and returning more successfully than any time since the 1960s. • Redband trout populations and their insect food sources remain robust. • The latest Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife angler surveys — from 2018 and previous years — have shown excellent catch rates.
