TABLE 3 and TABLE 4 

STEELHEAD OVER COLUMBIA AND SNAKE RIVER DAMS 1953-2009 

BY RUN-YEAR (JUNE 1 - MAY 31) 

Information Below Concerns the Following Two Tables 

Estimating the size of the upriver steelhead run has previously been hampered 

because of the calendar year approach used in the summary tables. Problems in 

accountability arise due to over wintering behavior of summer steelhead, 

especially Snake River stocks, which often have sizeable proportions of the run 

remaining below mainstem projects during the winter months. Migration of these 

steelhead commences again the following spring when warming reservoir 

temperatures trigger upstream movement. For this reason, an additional table has 

been prepared that summarizes steelhead trout counts at each project on a "fish 

year” basis: June 1 - May 31. Because all stocks of steelhead cross Bonneville 

Dam during the calendar year, those summary counts have not been modified. 

Footnotes for the Following Two Tables 

*Because counting started at each dam early in the year after construction was 

complete, these figures are for the latter part of the run year only. That part of the 

run year starting after June 1st of the previous 'year passed the dams without 

being counted. 

**1981 was the last year visual counts were made at Little Goose Project until 

1991.

access to the fish ladder. The following are fishway modifications for the 2008/2009 

passage year: 

-Removal of the wall separating DSM1 from the ITS begins. All remaining PH1 screens 

scrapped. 

-ITS automated chaingates installed in 3B, 6C, and 10B. 

- Lamprey ramp and bollards installed in CI entrance pool. Variable width entrance weir 

installed in May. 

- Picket leads installed perpendicular to existing AFF picket leads. 

- Release pipe attached to JMF outfall pipe for juveniles trucked from Walla Walla 

District. 

FISH REMOVAL 

Fish passage facilities and turbine units are taken out of service and dewatered to allow 

for inspection, preventative maintenance, repairs, and modifications. As facilities and 

turbine units are dewatered, project biologists, outside agency personnel, and other 

project personnel follow procedures outlined in the Fish Passage Plan and detailed in the 

Fish Salvage Plan to minimize impacts on fish. Fish recovered are typically released into 

the forebay above the new navigation lock. Salvaged sturgeon and juvenile salmonids, 

however, are released below the dam at Hamilton Island. The following is a summary of 

the number of fish that were removed during facility and turbine unit dewaterings. All 

fish were recovered in good condition unless otherwise noted. 

AFF (1/5/2009): two juvenile chinook, one juvenile steelhead, one peamouth, one 

sturgeon, 25 suckers. Fish were released in the Washington Shore ladder. 

Washington Shore Fishway (1/12/2009): 32 clipped adult steelhead, six unclipped adult 

steelhead, one chinook jack, one lamprey ammocete, three smallmouth bass, two 

stickleback, one sculpin, 37 residents (including peamouth, pikeminnow, whitefish, 

suckers). 

DSM 1 (1/15/2009): 13 juvenile steelhead, one juvenile chinook, 15 stickleback, five 

bass, one sculpin, one sucker.

 2Because of changes in the Washington shore counting station, lamprey counts from 1939-1949 cannot

*** Counting lamprey was stopped after 1969. It was resumed again in 1997. ***

spend long periods of time resting. Lamprey also are more likely to pass at night than are salmon and for

most of the years, fish counting took place only in the daytime. Further, during the 1970s, the count

station was changed from a flashboard counting system in which the fish passed over a white board to a

vertical slot system in which the fish pass through a lighted window. This change could have made a

difference in the counts. In addition, it is known that lamprey do not always use the fish ladder and may 

pass over a dam through several routes including the navigation lock and the auxiliary water supply.

FISH RELATED DEWATERINGS 

FISHWAY DEWATERING PROCEDURES 

Bulkheads are installed and drain valves open to dewater various areas of fishways. 

Fisheries personnel enter these areas to salvage fish that become entrapped. Minimal 

handling of fish is applied. Fish that are reluctant to vacate an area are captured and 

transported to the forebay or tailwater, depending on circumstances such as fish species, 

age class and stress levels. A follow up inspection is made to account for possible 

missed fish. Efforts are made to provide continual water supply during the entire 

operation to reduce fish stranding. Fishway areas not included on this list are inspected 

by ROV.

Largest sturgeon ~7'. 

TURBINE DEWATERING PROCEDURES 

Turbine dewatering for routine maintenance usually involves low numbers of fish, due to 

operational guidelines. If a turbine unit fails, operational guidelines cannot always be 

followed, which usually results in higher numbers of fish entrapment. Removal of fish 

from these areas has a greater fish stress risk due to handling. Procedures are continually 

analyzed to determine the best method for preventing fish stress or loss. Fish are 

removed from scroll case and draft tubes by fish bags. If numbers of fish are higher than 

two bags, transport tanks are placed in the draft tube gallery for transport by crane. Fish 

are released to tailwater either with bag and rope or tank and crane.

FISH RELATED DEWATERINGS 

FISHWAY DEWATERING PROCEDURES 

Bulkheads are installed and drain valves open to dewater various areas of fishways. 

Fisheries personnel enter these areas to salvage fish that become entrapped. Minimal 

handling of fish is applied. Fish that are reluctant to vacate an area are captured and 

60
transported to the forebay or tailwater, depending on circumstances such as fish species, 

age class and stress levels. A follow up inspection is made to account for possible 

missed fish. Efforts are made to provide continual water supply during the entire 

operation to reduce fish stranding. Fishway areas not included on this list are inspected 

by ROV.

TURBINE DEWATERING PROCEDURES 

Turbine dewatering for routine maintenance usually involves low numbers of fish, due to 

operational guidelines. If a turbine unit fails, operational guidelines cannot always be 

followed, which usually results in higher numbers of fish entrapment. Removal of fish 

from these areas has a greater fish stress risk due to handling. Procedures are continually 

analyzed to determine the best method for preventing fish stress or loss. Fish are 

removed from scroll case and draft tubes by fish bags. If numbers of fish are higher than 

two bags, transport tanks are placed in the draft tube gallery for transport by crane. Fish 

are released to tailwater either with bag and rope or tank and crane.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

Water temperatures were recorded hourly from fish ladder exit pool and the 

downstream end of the juvenile channels. Hourly readings were taken from 17 June to 1 

October. 

Idaho Cooperative Fisheries Research Unit conducted an evaluation of adult 

salmon and steelhead migration past the Snake and Columbia River Dams. In addition, 

lamprey passage was monitored in the north shore and south shore adult fish ladders by 

half duplex PIT tag equipment 

NOAA conducted research on juvenile salmonids passing through the spillway 

and over the removable spillway weir. 

The RSW operated 7 April until the end of the spill season 31 August.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES

Water temperatures were recorded hourly from fish ladder exit pools and the down 

stream end of the primary de-waterer. Hourly readings were taken from 23 

June to 6 October. The purpose is to determine if summer spill has any effects on exit 

pool temperatures. 

Fish pumps were out of service from 4 January through 6 February as evaluating their 

condition and rebuilding FP 3 was going on. Two fish pump operation occurred for all of 

the adult fish passage season while pump 3 was out of service for repair. Fish ladder 

operating criteria was met for the most part throughout the season with only two pumps 

in operation. 

The juvenile fish facility was operated for juvenile fish transport/bypass and adult 

fallbacks from 1 April to 17 December. 

Second year of RSW operation and testing.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

 As in previous years water temperature at the ladder exit was recorded on an 

hourly basis and reported monthly to determine if summer spill had an effect on ladder 

temperature. 

Idaho Cooperative Fisheries Research Unit continued to evaluate adult salmon 

and steelhead migration past the adult ladder at Little Goose dam. 

 Using substrate monitors located near the ladder exit, the COE continued to 

monitor for invasive species with particular attention to Zebra Mussels and Quagga 

Mussels. Reports are submitted monthly to district. 

 Washington State Dept. of Fish and Wildlife (contracted fish counters) will 

continue to monitor and report Bull Trout migration past the adult fish ladder at Little 

Goose. Sightings are reported annually to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

Water temperatures were monitored hourly by hobo from the fish ladder exit pool 

and the downstream end of the juvenile fish collection channel. During 2009, readings 

were taken from June to 30 September. 

During 2009, the adult fish trap was operated continuously from 3 March through 

15 November with the exception of two time periods. The first period ran from 20 July 

to 17 August when there was a problem with the air valve control for the slide gate to the 

anesthetic tank and water temperatures were also too high for fish handling. The second 

period ran from September 1-5 when the trap was out of operation due to water 

temperatures in excess of 70°F. 

During the initial phase of trap operation, the trap was operated at a 10% sample 

rate to examine the last phase of the steelhead run for A and B run composition and for 

hatchery-wild determination. The sample rate was reduced to 5% between May 18 and 

July 19 when spring and summer chinook were present. During this time period, scale 

samples were taken from both hatchery and adult wild chinook and tissue samples were 

also taken from wild chinook. Lemhi-origin PIT-tagged chinook were also fitted with 

radio tags through June 12. 

Due to high water temperatures in the fish ladder, and previously mentioned air 

valve control problems on a slide gate, sampling operations at the adult trap were stopped 

on July 20. Beginning August 18, the trap resumed operation with the water 

temperatures in the high 60°F range. The system was set to randomly divert 12% of all 

146
fish ascending the ladder. The goal was to maintain a 12% sample rate through the fall 

season – if possible. In addition, a target of 5,000 unclipped (wild) steelhead were to be 

PIT-tagged by Idaho Fish and Game (IDFG) personnel assigned to the trap operation. 

On September 1, the trap was taken out of operation, per Fish Passage Plan 

guidelines, due to water temperatures in excess of 70°F. The trap resumed operations on 

September 6 and the sample rate was reduced down to 9% on September 8. Adult trap 

operations then continued unimpeded through the duration of the season ending on 

November 15. 

Trucking of fall chinook to both Lyons Ferry Hatchery and the Nez Perce Cherry 

Lane Hatchery for run supplementation purposes also took place during the fall 

operational period and ended on 16 November. A total of 3,396 fall chinook (1,716 

adults and 1,680 jacks) was hauled to Lyons Ferry Hatchery. The Nez Perce Tribal 

Hatchery received 1,968 fall chinook (976 adults and 992 jacks). 

The juvenile fish facility was operated for fish transport/bypass from 25 March to 

31 October and for monitoring and bypass of adult fallbacks and juvenile PIT-tagged fish 

from 25 March to 15 December.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

Fish Counting

The video fish-counting system uses digital video cameras installed in the fishways to 

assist with counting migrating fish at Priest Rapids and Wanapum dams. Digital video 

data are streamed 24 hours per day to digital video recorders at each dam. Fish counters 

then playback these data on computers in a fast-forward mode to identify and count 

passing fish. At the end of each day all counts are tallied and a fish-count report is 

generated and posted on Grant PUD’s Fish, Wildlife, and Water Quality website 

(http://www.gcpud.org/resources/resFish/fishCounts.htm). The fish-counting season for 

the Priest Rapids Hydroelectric Project runs from April 15 through November 15, 

annually. 

PIT-tag Detection

The PIT-tag detection array at Priest Rapids Dam operated continuously when the 

fishways were fully operational. 

Fish Trapping

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) operated the Priest Rapids offladder adult fish trap (OLAFT) a total of 27 days between 16 July and 15 October, 2009 

as part of its steelhead stock assessment (Table 1). WDFW also trapped and sampled 

adult fall Chinook salmon to study age composition a total of 11 days from 3 September 

to 8 October, 2009 (Table 2). The Yakama Nation trapped adult sockeye salmon a total of 

11 days from 25 June to 9 July, 2009 for a restocking program in Lake Cle Elum (Table 

3).

Fish Facility Activities

The Rock Island Bypass Trap was operated by Chelan County PUD Natural Resource 

Department employees from 1 April through 31 August 2009. Juvenile fish were 

sampled daily during that time period. 

The adult fish PIT tag system was operational throughout the 2009 adult fish migration. 

PIT tag detections from all three fishways were uploaded daily to PTAGIS. 

In 2009, the Chelan County PUD monitored passage of radio-tagged adult bull trout at the 

Rock Island Project and in the tributaries through 19 June. The purpose of the bull trout 

study was to assess the behavior of the fish as they migrated through the dam, associated 

pool and tributaries. Monitoring occurred from 16 May 2005 through 19 June 2009. A final 

report will be available in 2010. 

From 9 June to 9 July 2009, the Chelan County PUD operated two to four Northern 

pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus oregonensis) traps in the upper and lower right bank fish ladder. 

A total of 2,131 pikeminnow were trapped and removed from the river.

Fish Facility Activities 

The adult fish PIT tag system was operational throughout the 2009 adult fish migration. PIT 

tag detections in the fishway were uploaded daily to PTAGIS. 

 

In 2009, the Chelan County PUD monitored passage of radio-tagged adult bull trout at the 

Rocky Reach Project and in the tributaries through 19 June. The purpose of the bull trout 

study was to assess the behavior of the fish as they migrated through the dam, associated 

pool and tributaries. Monitoring occurred from 16 May 2005 through 19 June 2009. A final 

report will be available in 2010. 

 

From 9 to 29 June 2009, the Chelan County PUD operated two Northern pikeminnow 

(Ptychocheilus oregonensis) traps in the upper fish ladder. A total of 505 pikeminnow were 

trapped and removed from the river. 

The juvenile fish bypass system was operated for fish passage from 1 April to 31 August 

2009. Juvenile fish sampling occurred over the same time frame. The annual bypass 

(biological) evaluation included an acoustic tag survival study and collection of data on 

species composition and fish condition.

WELLS DAM 

FISH COUNTING SCHEDULE 

Adult counting schedules at Wells are from May 1 through November 15. Fish passage is 

assessed by reviewing a videotape record made the previous day. Passage by species and ladder 

is made for each hour of the day. Counts between 1967 and 1997 were reported for 16 hours 

(0500 – 2100 PST). Starting in 1998, as per the request of the Wells Coordinating Committee, 

counts were reported in a 24 hour (0000 – 2400) format. Either format is available upon request 

from Douglas PUD. Chinook are separated into three populations based upon date of passage 

through the ladders. Spring Chinook pass from May 1 through June 28, summer Chinook 

between June 29 and August 28, and fall Chinook from August 29 through November 15. 

FISH LADDER OPERATING SCHEDULE 

East Ladder

December 22 – 31 Outage for Inspection and Maintenance 

(Outage will extend into 2010) 

West Ladder

February 4 – 10 Outage for Inspection and Bi-Annual Maintenance 

JUVENILE PASSAGE FACILITES 

The juvenile bypass at Wells Dam uses the hydrocombine design of the dam by modifying five 

of the eleven spill bays. The even numbered spill bays are partially constricted with barriers that 

improve the attraction flow from the forebay into the spill bay area. Up to 11,000 cfs of water is 

made available for bypass flow during the juvenile migration. 

The operation of the bypass in 2008 was coordinated with the Wells Habitat Conservation Plan 

Coordinating Committee. In the past, hydroacoustics and fyke netting have provided 

information on real time data of the fish migration. The fixed dates agreed to by the HCP 

Coordinating Committee were established from 21 years of hydroacoustic and 14 years of 

species composition information collected on juvenile run patterns at Wells Dam. 

The spring bypass season started on April 12th at 0000 hours and ran continuously through June 

13th at 2400 hours. The spring bypass operated for a total of 63 days and utilized a total 

discharge of 1.09 MAF, or 6.5 percent of total project discharge. During the spring bypass 

operation, there was forced spill during 22 hours or 1.5 percent of the season. Summer bypass 

started on June 14th at 0000 hours and ran until August 26th at 2400 hours, for a total of 74 days. 

There was 1.08 MAF, or 7.2 percent of the total discharge dedicated to summer bypass. During 

the summer bypass operating period, there were 18 hours or 1.0 percent of the hours with forced 

spill.
