Thank you for this live feed!!!!
Dams are our best source of clean energy.
I hope they replace the old ones with ones that incorporate designs with fish in mind.
frankie, get a dam clue.
If you really want to bring back the salmon runs, put a stop to ALL gillnetting.
Todd, I thought modern day dams have made it possible for salmon and other fish to get through, while still generating electricity… am I mistaken here?
frankie, there’s no reason to dam every river and stream. Read this article, it’s kind of old but it sums up what’s being corrected, slowly.
“There are over 2900 fish-killing dams in the Interior Columbia Basin alone, and nobody knows how many thousands of others scattered throughout the west coast. In the dam building frenzy of the 20’s through 60’s dams were grossly overbuilt. Many of these dams are now obsolete, too expensive or safety hazards. Lots of them cost far more in environmental damage (especially to our salmon fishery) than any social benefits they provide.”

OK, but ain’t the newer dams built for fish and generating hydropower?
Don’t get me wrong – lets get rid of the old dams, but they are one of the best, cheapest, reliable and clean forms of energy we have.
