SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — The Spokane Tribe has received $200,000 to study whether salmon could survive above Grand Coulee and Chief Joseph dams.
The Northwest Power and Conservation Council approved the funding last week.
The Spokesman-Review says the study is part of an investigation into whether Salmon and Steelhead could be successfully reintroduced above the dams, which were built without fish ladders decades ago.
