For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]. JACKIE KROLOPP KIRN* and MARION E. MARTS** The Skagit-High Ross Controversy: Negotiation and Settlement SETTING AND BACKGROUND The Skagit River is a short but powerful stream which rises in the mountains of southwestern British Columbia, cuts through the northern Cascades in a spectacular and once-remote mountain gorge, and empties into Puget Sound approximately sixty miles north of Seattle. The beautiful mountain scenery of the heavily glaciated north Cascades was formally recognized in the United States by the creation of the North Cascades National Park and the Ross Lake National Recreation Area in 1968, and earlier in British Columbia by creation of the E.C. Manning Provincial Park. The Ross Lake Recreation Area covers the narrow valley of the upper Skagit River in Washington and portions of several tributary valleys. It was created as a political and, to environmentalists who wanted national park status for the entire area, controversial, compromise which accom- modated the city of Seattle's Skagit River Project and the then-planned North Cascades Highway.

On September 29, 2009, the City of Seattle, Washington (Seattle)1 filed, pursuant to sections 4(e) and 15 of the Federal Power Act (FPA),2 an application for a new license to continue operation and maintenance of its Boundary Hydroelectric Project (Boundary Project or project). The project’s authorized capacity being licensed is 1,003.253 megawatts (MW). The project is located on the Pend Oreille River near the city of Metaline Falls, in Pend Oreille County, Washington.3 The project occupies 609.24 acres of federal land managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service (Forest Service) within the Colville National Forest, and 329.35 acres of federal lands managed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM).4 2. As discussed below, this order issues a new license for the Boundary Project.5 1 The Boundary Project is operated and maintained by the City of Seattle’s Seattle City Light Department, often referred to as SCL. 2 16 U.S.C. §§ 797(e) and 808 (2006), respectively. 3 The Federal Power Commission (FPC), now the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission), found the Pend Oreille River from Pend Oreille Lake in Idaho downstream to the United States – Canada border to be a navigable waterway of the United States. See Public Utility District No. 1 of Pend Oreille County, Washington, 11 F.P.C.

It is bordered by the Upper Columbia Subbasin to the west, the Coeur d’ Alene and Spokane subbasins to the south, Montana to the east, and Canada to the north. The Pend Oreille River is the largest river in the Subbasin and flows west out of Lake Pend Oreille and north across the Idaho Panhandle and the northeastern corner of Washington before draining into the Columbia River in British Columbia. There are five dams on the Pend Oreille River including two in Canada, the Waneta and Seven Mile, plus Boundary, Box Canyon, and Albeni Falls in the United States. The dams have impacted both aquatic and terrestrial resources. None of the dams have fish passage facilities. Dams in the Pend Oreille tributaries further fragment the connectivity of native salmonid population, including Cedar Creek, Sullivan Lake, Mill Pond, Calispell Pumps, and West Branch LeClerc Creek Log Crib dams. Fish passage is blocked upstream of Lake Pend Oreille in the Clark Fork River at the Cabinet Gorge, Noxon Rapids, and Thompson Falls dams. These Clark Fork River dams are conducting experimental fish passage studies and are evaluating structure designs to pass bull trout and cutthroat trout, but the current numbers of fish passed are limited.

  • Albeni Falls Dam Flexible Winter Power Operations Bonner County, Idaho
    Albeni Falls Dam Flexible Winter Power Operations Bonner County, Idaho Final Environmental Assessment October 2011 BONNEVILLE POWER ADMINISTRATION U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Bonneville Power Administration. 2011. Final Environmental Assessment—Albeni Falls Dam Flexible Winter Power Operations, Bonner County, Idaho. July. (DOE/EA-1894.) Albeni Falls Dam Flexible Winter Power Operations Bonner County, Idaho Final Environmental Assessment October 2011 The responsible agencies for this work are the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA). Summary: BPA has proposed the Corps operate Albeni Falls Dam (AFD) during the winter months to utilize a larger portion of the authorized operating range from what has occurred in recent years. The objective is to increase Federal Columbia River Power System operational flexibility for power production utilizing available storage at AFD. The action would allow BPA to more effectively meet winter power demands in the northwestern United States. The proposal includes storing and discharging water behind AFD for power purposes during the winter months. This would result in fluctuating the surface elevation of Lake Pend Oreille between the annual minimum control elevation (MCE) (usually between 2051 and 2055 feet) and 2056 feet from about mid-December until March 31 every year. The proposal is a change to the way AFD has been operated in the winter time in recent years, in which the surface elevation of Lake Pend Oreille has generally been targeted at 2051 or 2055 feet with a one foot operating range. In years where the annual MCE is set at 2055 feet, this proposal will not be different than current operations.
