What is the number?
It is a ratio.
Hydropower Breakout - Steve Martin moderator
1st Session
1
Project abunande benefit
What are the benefits to chinook abundance
we need fish at the right time. Run timing is important.
How long for benefits to occur
When increases in No LRSCP production would abundance surpass Hatchery production
under assumption that hatcheries close same time (is true for Lyons Ferry)
follow up - if net losss what sort of Hatchery production
Who has Authority
to decomission
to breach
(who has the budget)
how much time does this take
how long will lawsuits take
(congress has two months to protect them, but why would they? McMorris Rodgers bill failed.
State's authority, green vest, fish shirt, goat
WA state 77.57.030
Fish passage authority held by the state
What is the role of BPA?
EPA. others, FERC,
Upgrades to impacs of transportation
how much cost
capacity issue
CO2 impacts
How to replace power
CO2 impacts
energy system
grid impacts
need
see percentage increase but don't see numbers
Senator Ranker
has heard 4x but has not seen substantiation
what base line are we using. 1890 for whales 0r 1990 for whales
provide historic
sluffing, slides, land use,
first webinar
these above (mostly) benefits by spill
Why has past EIS not concluded with LSR dam breaching
same for CRSO
species that we are adding, will that lengthen process
also asks
what is the bang for the buck
there are costs, right?
dollar per fish
Ranker, b) is already occuring in NEPA / CRSO process
combine a) and c) as one sentence though c) really doesn't matter. We need action NOW

We have cut harvest by 160 million cut in Puget Sound, 60 million Columbia since 1990 harvest
Hatchry production in Washington is half what it was. That means a lot less fish for Orca. This is the case in both Bad ocean AND average ocean which we seem to be returning to. Sacramento, Rogue are coming back strong. It is repairing this time around as a South to North Repail.

strike A --- isn't that spill caps. I was still lost on what they were discussing with A
litigation - a judge can decide to stop the dewatering, or breaching. But only if it is an irreversible process (John Seiler)
maybe silver hair, blue shirt white squres, thin glasses
spill - a lot of the
how long would dam removl get as compared towards what spill gets us
"the ecosystem that we have dropped out of the decision?"
are their more available options left in Corps toolbox
do we need spill in Mid-Columiba? low Columbia,
spill loses power production
can we spill off the bottom to get cooler water
(I think what about Idaho Power?)
water chillers.
when to spill. 24 hours spill, morning, night?
response to windpower possibly
Expedite NEPA process. CRSO
Seven generation - breaching is reversible, extinction and ecosystem collapse is not.
Session 3
What about the dams that have no fish passage? Why the focus on the LSR.
NOAA Tech Memo says there is a sufficient mitigation by hatchery.
I'd like to hear about this Tech Memo.
Elwah saw decline of runs due to sediment. I long will it take to see benefits from LSR breaching.
Could we prioritize Puget, Columbia, Fraser.
life histroy and genetics, June Hogs, life history
Why does spill cost so much?
at some TDG, 130 or where is it that it balance. We want some science.
ignoring the science so as an excuse to not lose money.
Consecutive spill
is their cumulative detriment to the fish
if it is sold at a loss is it an economic loss? - Ken
Session 2
If the LSR dams are breached
1) What are the benefits to Chinook abundance
and How long will it take to return?
Are there dams above the LSR how does that effect the removal
What is current recovery plan.
Is that question for both juvenile and adult. Adult is what matters
2) What impacts would occur to hatchery production halting
would there be a net loss
what is the baseline that we are using (Columbia mouth, for instance)
what is current mitigation, what is the funding and what is the stability of that funding (potential loss of that funding?)
3) Who has authority to Decommission
Who has authority to Breaching
What is the role of list of federal agencies (ASK STEVE MARTIN)
BPA, EPA, etc.
What is the time line for breaching.
How fast can things happen.
What role can the governor have in this authority
Washington, Idaho, Oregon.
5) What are the impacts to transportation and irrigation
carbon impacts
what would it cost to replace
who funds
how long will it take
will they be in place before breaching
add recreation
7) What are the implications of Court Rulings
why have they not concluded in a definitive order to breach
same question for NEPA/CRSO
8) What is the current NEPA process and timeline
how does that change if Orca are included in that process
Session 2 questions
Cost of breaching
what is the funding source.
How are we focused on 4 LSR
If removae skagit, we would have a complete river system.
(does not address Idaho Power dams, FERC, maybe prepare some history)
Does open the Salmon (Sunbeam is long gone).
SPILL
Increase spill caps in Washington.
A matrix
What are the benefits and impacts of spill
gas increases, increase risk of death
as spill increase possible increase in life
where these three
cost to F&W programs (Eliot made that call this year)
does habitat money, etc. necessarily decrease with decrease revenue
Smart spill
wind
solar duck curve
additional alternatives
are they being actively being pursued by BPA
and relates to revenue loss
but at same time benefits fish survival
could Woosh technology help to get Adults upstream.
get more information for interim technologies
EXPEDITE process NEPA/ CRSO
1st group -- low priority so why bother? Easy to do, not much effective, so
I'd rather have the Governor spend his time on something else
if not possible, does this make us less credible.
Are there other funds for non-listed fish that could see exponential benefit from habitat moneys.
What moneys are available?
Careen Cottingham says they have money for this (she does the State of the Salmon report)
then later mentions past process that Targeting strongholds.

are hatchery good when done right?
is it worth increasing hatchery production, with eye towards hatchery reform?
