White Salmon Boaters: Use Caution Downstream of Powerhouse!
03/23/2016 - by Megan Hooker
A rotary screw trap is being installed on the lower White
Salmon River on Thursday, March 24, 2016 to monitor juvenile salmon and steelhead. Boaters
should use extreme caution near the trap, which is located on river left about 0.6 miles
downstream of the powerhouse. Warning signs have
been installed upstream of the trap location. The
trap is part of a study to monitor juvenile salmon and steelhead in the White Salmon River after
the historic removal of Condit Dam.
White Salmon (WA) River Meeting Nov 15
11/07/2014 - by Megan Hooker
The Mid-Columbia Fisheries Enhancement Group is developing a Fish Habitat Conservation
Approach focused on the long-term management of salmon and steelhead habitat along the lower six
miles of the White Salmon River. The Enhancement Group has worked closely with American
Whitewater, Yakama Nation, and resource agencies to develop a collective vision for the White
Salmon River that realizes the full benefits of Condit Dam removal for fish and the community. It
is important for the boating community to be a part of this discussion, and we encourage local
boaters to participate in a community meeting in Husum on Saturday, November 15th.
