FOREWORD 

This is one of a series of annual reports providing a 

continuous statistical record of fish passage counts and related 

data at Corps of Engineer dams on the Columbia and Snake Rivers. 

Data on other Corps' dams planned or under construction on these 

rivers will be incorporated into fUture reports as the dams are 

completed and placed in operation. 

In order to be consistent with criteria used by state and 

other federal agencies, the dates used for classifying Chinook 

Salmon into spring, summer and fall fish (see tables 1, 17, 33 

and 52) have been revised for all projects with corresponding 

adjustments in count figures for past years. 

Copies of the annual fish passage report are made available 

to biologists, state and federal fisher,y departments, libraries 

and other agencies and individuals demonstrating interest in 

these fisheries.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PASSAGE OF FISH 

BONNEVILLE, THE DALLES, McNARY AND ICE HARBOR DAMS 

CALENDAR YEAR 1964 

BONNEVILLE DAM 

Salmon 

1. A total of 1,078,206 fish were counted at Bonneville Dam in 1964 

including 615,809 salmonids and 462,397 non-salmonids. The most salmonidae 

to be counted in one day at Bonneville was 22,115 on 8 September. 

2. A brief summaxy of salmonid counts is contained in the following 

table:

3. A record silver count of 53,602 exceeded, by almost 3 times, the 

previous high of 17,911 in 1941. Of the 1964 count, only 5,978 migrated 

beyond The Dalles Dam. Various sizes were observed. At the beginning of 

1 
Bonneville Dam 

the upstream migration, the run was composed chief~ of jacks about ]2 

to 14" in length. Gradually as the season advanced, larger fish became 

more nwnerous. Some of' the adults were of greater size than a:ny previously 

observed passing Bonneville by the project biologist. 

Miscellaneous other Species 

4. Non-salmonoid species moved in maximum abundance on 12 July When 

22,359 shad and 5,]20 other miscellaneous fish were recorded. 

5. A run of' 252,674 shad passed the project. A number of' individuals 

. of' this species remained in the ladders until late in the year and numerou,s 

adult shad were present in the Washington f'ish~ When it was unwatered 

16 November. 

6. A count of 9,356 squawf'ish confirmed that movement of'this 

species over dams continues to decline. 

7. Adverse eff'ects on sturgeon by motoring a main unit turbine were 

apparent when services of' a diver were necessary 7 July to work at the 

bottom of' Unit No. 9 draft tube in connection with turbine net tests 

being conducted by U S. Fish & Wildlif'e Service. Units 8 and 10 were 

operated at speed-no-load with about 1000 cf's of' water passing each unit. 

Although Unit No. 9 passed no water, it was kept rotating by electrical 

means, called motoring, and the moving submerged turbine blades mu.tilated 

several large sturgeon Which had entered the danger area. 

8. No smelt came inland as f'ar as Bonneville Dam nor have any been 

observed since 1953. 

9. lampreys totaling 104,3Jl were counted. Annual average is 

101,504.

10. Followil~ the auxiliary water conduit and fingerling experiments 

in December 1963, the collection bay was pumped down to facilitate removal 

of eXperimental gear. A portion of the experimental work continued into 

1964. Tatooed fish were held in a local hatchery pond where long-term 

delay~d mortality was caref'ulJ¥ recorded. When the Washington collection 

bay was re-flooded, the presence of 2,000 to 3,000 tatooed fingerling 

salmon was observed in the northernmost of the two Washington shore fishlocks.

Bonneville Dam 

11. General ladder overhaul begs.n 16 November 1964 when the 

ladder 'WaS un'Watered. Auxilia.r,y 'Water valves were repaired and debris 

removed; new piezometer tubes were placed at diffusion chambers 12 and 

19. The tubes are located at elevations -17 in diffusion chamber 19, 

+7 in 12, and +2.8 at 15 (installed in 1963). 

12. The diffusion grating was repaired at chamber No • .20. 

Broken or lost weir crests from diffusion valVes 9 to 15 were restored 

while the fishway 'WaS drained. Weirs 71, 74, 76, 80, 81 and 82 were 

adjusted prior to reactivation of the fish~. The underwater light 

ps.nel at the counting station 'WaS complete1:y rebuilt, and a new metal 

skirt 'WaS attached to the U. S. Fish s.nd Wildlife Service adult salmon 

trap to prevent loss of fish under the brail. 

13. Radial valve No. 3 supp1:ying auxiliary 'Water to the fishladder 'WaS overhauled in February 1964. Mechanical screens in the 

auxiliary system were removed beginning late in October and their 

replacement with one-inch.-spaced trash racks was begun. 

14. Appro.x:::1ma.te1:y 500 spring chinook migtants were taken from 

the exit trap in the north shore ladder by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service and hauled to Carson Fish Cultural Station. It 'Was understood 

that the young salmon resulting from propagation of eggs from these 

fish would go to Idaho. 

Bradford Island Ladder and Powerhouse Collection Syst~ 

15. The weir contractions established in 1961 provided equal 

overflows on each end of the ladder weirs, but staggered orifices in 

adjacent weirs unbalanced the bydraulics cauSing cross flows altel"Il&ting 

4 
Bonneville Dam 

back and forth down the ladder. In order to balance the flow conditions down the ladder, the center sections of the weirs were shifted 

to provide a 7' weir overflow above each of the orifices and an 11' 

weir overflow on the opposite end. The task of revision continued 

into 1965. 

16. Establishment of the contracted weirs initially caused 

certain of the pools to operate at depths under the original 7'. 

Adjustments were made during the current overhaul restoring operation 

to the 7' depth in the spill~ and powerhouse branch fish passes. 

Early information on the altered weir operation is available on page 10 

of the 1961 annual report. 

17. Replacement of the stationar,y screens in the auxiliar,y water 

system at the south end of the powerhouse with one-inch-spaced trash 

racks was begun. The openings in the prlmar,y trash racks which set 

upstream from the l'f racks were in the process of being reduced at year 

end. The primary racks are in 3 tiers which set on a sill at elevation 

.+60 and rise to +76. The bottom tier will have 6" spaces, the middle 

3" spaces, and the top units will remain at 6" spacings. Experience 

to date indicates that significant operational savings and an increased 

auxiliary water supply can be expected to result from replacement of the 

screens with the 1" racks. 

18. Overhaul of Bradford Island radial valves Nos. 7 and 8 was 

completed in March 1964. At No. 8 a metal hood was installed to prevent water from splashing up and out of the valve shaft. On J:2 October 

a diver discovered erosive loss of riprap in the river near the entrance 

5 
Bonneville Dam 

of the B-Branch ladder. This will be scheduled for repair in 1965. 

19- Peizometer tubes were placed at elevation 14.3 in diffusion 

chamber No. 5 of the A-Branch ladder. A Peizometer is scheduled to be 

installed at elevation 2.8 of collection bay diffusion chamber 32 during early 1965. 

20. Diffusion gratings and underpinnings adjacent to diffusion 

valves 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 were renewed. 

21. When the ladder was unwatered for maintenance, 500 to 600 

adult steelhead trout and a number of shad and salmon were found, transferred to a water tank, and released into the forebay. 

22. The deteriorated inclined plane fingerling trap at the north 

end of the dam was discarded, and new decking was laid over portions 

of the fingerling bypass. Two traps will be removed at the south end 

of the spillway. 

Spillway Dam Fishlocks 

23. Decommissioning of the south fishlocks located on the north 

and the south ends of the spillway dam was completed in February with 

removal of the fishlock brails, hoisting machinery, flexible conduit 

and wiring. On 27 August the north Washington fishlock segmental gate 

lifting bar failed permitting the gates to fall. Repair was accomplished during the general maintenance period. 

Spillway 'Bays I and 18 

24. When the spring runoff was expected to exceed 500,000 cfs 

the barrier screens at spillway Bays I and 18 were removed but the 

gates were left open a few inches to supplement attraction water near 

6 
Bonneville Dam 

the entrances to the spillway fish collection bays. Fish then entered 

the areas between the training walls of bays 1 and 18 and were trapped 

temporarily when the barriers were replaced after the spring freshet 

subsided. Holes 3 feet square were cut in the cyclone wire of the 

barriers through which the fish left the areas within 2 days. The 

holes were again closed when tailwater dropped below the openings. 

Turbine Observation Ports 

25. At ~he request of U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, several 

small viewing ports were installed in the top plate of the turbine in 

Unit 9 to permit attempts to observe small salmon migrating downstream 

through the unit. 

General 

26. Nearly a million visitors (903,467) entered the project, 

including a number distinguished in fishery matters. 

27. The very limited parking space for sportsmen fishing in the 

vicinity of the mouth of Tanner Creek was supplemented by an additional 

area graded and gravelled near the ball park. Parking i~ not a problem 

on the western end of Bradford Island where sports fishing is heavy at 

times for shad, steelhead, and salmon. 

28. A significant salmon fishery by Indians using set nets was 

evident in the reservoir area. 

29. It became necessary to remove the grating in the trash racks 

of Tanner Creek by-pass paralleling the hatchery to overcome a recurring flooding condition caused by floating aquatic vegetation blocking 

these racks.

Bonneville Dam 

30. The office for fishway operations personnel was moved 

from the southwest spillway tower to the elevation 77 deck of the 

powerhouse control room. 

Fishwal Operation and Maintenance Costs 

31. The total 1964 fishway operation and maintenance cost, 

including routine £1sh counting, but excluding research and other 

investigations, was as follows:

THE DAILES DAtI! 

General 

32. A total of 899,043 fish were counted at The Dalles Dam 

in 1964, including 378,900 salmonids and 520,143 non salmonids. 

The salmon count was comprised of 183,842 chinook (kings) or Quinnattsj 79,042 blueback, or Nerkaj 5 pinks, or humpbacks; and 110,033 

steelhead, or seagoing rainbow trout. No chums, or "dog" salmon 

were observed. The maximum daily sum of salmonids in 1964 was 8,450 

on 5 July, of which 6,483 were blueback. The latter run peaked at 

6,571 individuals on 7 July. The greatest number of all fish tabulated in one day was 27,225 on 13 July; of this tally, 22,597 were 

miscellaneous species, including 13,859 shad and 1,089 lampreys. The 

peak lamprey count of 4,469 came on 8 August. Of the 252,674 shad 

counted through the Bonneville ladders, 62.8% of them (158,786) 

ascended The Dalles Dam fishways. For statistics, by dam, see 

Table No.1. 

33. An aggregate of 234,195 visitors was recorded at The Dalles 

Project during the 1964 calendar year. 

Fish Counting Schedule, 1964 

No enumeration was performed from 1 January through 28 March. 

Full time tabulations, 16 hours per day, 29 March - 24 October 1964. 

The gates were closed at night, but remained open all day; a 

factor of 1.2 was applied to compensate for the passage of fish during 

the 10 minute rest period. Throughout the counting season no fish 

were permitted to migrate over the flash boards after 8:00 P.M.; 

9 
The Dalles Dam 

therefore, no night time factors were necessary. All fish avenues 

were open to movement of fish from late fall through the early 

spring, except as noted below. 

Fish Facilities Inspection, Alterations and Operations 

34. Stoplogs were placed at the upper end of the North Ladder 

10 December 1963 to facilitate inspection and maintenance of the 

passageway. All loose rock and debris found between the weirs and 

in the diffusion chambers was removed. Water was re-introduced and 

the ladder became functional at 11:30 A.M. 6 January 1964. 

35. A new 10 foot section of weir crest was replaced in the 

east fish pass 7 January, and the facility was reactivated the next 

day. 

36. Translucent white plastic was affixed to the tops of both 

counting boards 21 January. 

37. After a long delay awaiting repair equipment, Unit F-1 was 

rewatered, and the east fisheries complex was readjusted for a greater 

supply of auxiliary water 31 January 1964. 

38. Skilled personnel repaired the large Cushman draft tube net 

for tests at Cougar Dam. When returned, the net was dried and then 

stored in the warehouse. 

39. Fourteen swans spent almost all of 20 April in the forebay. 

40. Auxiliary water supplies were shut off 17 December to prevent damage by ice during frigid weather.

McNARY DAM 

General 

42. A total of 565,991 fish were counted at McNary Dam in 

1964 including 355,924 salmonids and 210,067 fish of other miscellaneous species. The salmon count was comprised of 167,934 chinook, 83,931 blueback (sockeye), 3,317 silver (coho) and 100,742 

steelhead. No chum salmon were tallied in 1964. The maximum 

daily count of salmonids was 8,799 on 12 July. 

43. Suckers were predominant among the miscellaneous species. 

The number of non-salmonoid fish counted over the ladders has been 

on a general decline since 1955, dropping trom about 71 percent of 

the total count to 37 percent for 1964. A total of 14,494 shad 

were tabulated in 1964, the hJghest annual count to date. It is of 

interest that of the total number of shad counted at Bonneville Dam 

each year, the percentage passing McNary Dam is increasing. 

44. A total of 54,179 vis·itors were recorded at McNary Dam 

during the year 1964. 

McNary 1964 Fish Counting Schedule 

45. No counting was performed 1 January - 31 March. 

46. Sample counting was performed 1 April - 31 July in fourhour periods, alternating between counting stations, 16 hours daily. 

The gates of the ladder where the last daily four hour shift was 

spent were closed from 8:00 P.M. to 4:00 A.M. PST the next day when 

the first shift opened them. The opposite ladder remained open 

during this time •. 

12 
McNary Dam 

47. Full time counting was performed 1 August - 31 October, 

4:00 AM to 8:00 PM PST with counting stations closed to fish passage 

at night but left open during counter rest periods. All counts during 

the counting season were factored according to the amount of non-counting 

time the stations were open but unattended. No counting was performed 

1 November - 31 December. Both ladders were open to free fish passage 

at all times of no count except during the periods of 20-26 February 

and 11-31 December when the Oregon Ladder was unwatered for maintenance 

and repair. 

Fish Facilities Repair and Overhaul 

48. Work was begun in December to modify the windows, in the fish 

viewing room and the ladder weirs adjacent to the structure to improve 

conditions for observation of fish. Partial caps were placed on top 

of the weirs adjacent to the viewing room to reduce the turbulence and 

entrained air in the water in front of the windows. The windows were 

moved out flush with the inside wall of the ladder to further improve I 

viewing conditions. This work continued into 1965. 

Special Fishery Investigations 

49. The supplementary spawning channel built in ~957 and operated 

by the Washington Department of Fisheries, under contract with the 

Corps of Engineers, continued in operation during 1964. Maintenance of 

the channel was performed by Corps of Engineers personnel. No major 

revisions were made this year.

ICE HARBOR DAM 

General 

51. A total of 334,104 fish were counted over Ice Harbor Dam 

in 1964 including 122,304 salmonids and 211,800 non-salmonids. The 

salmon count was comprised of 60,097 chinook, 1,276 blueback (sockeye), 

2,071 silver (coho) and 58,860 steelhead. The maximum daily count of 

salmonids was 2,881 on 19 September. The combined maximum daily count 

of all species was 8,940 on 11 July. 

52. A total of 90,158 visitors were recorded at Ice Harbor Dam 

in 1964. 

Ice Harbor 1964 Fish Counting Schedule 

53. Counting was performed 1 January to 31 March, 8 AM to 4 PM. 

Schedule alternated daily between 8 hours counted on each ladder and a 

split-shift four hours per day on each ladder. 

54. Counting was performed 16 hours per day, 4 AM to 8 PM PST 

1 April - 31 October. Counting stations were closed at night but left 

open during counter re~t periods. 

55. Counting was performed on eight hour per day basiS, 8 AM to 

·4 PM 1 November - 30 November. Counting stations were opened during 

rest periods, but closed from 4 PM to 8 AM. 

56. Counting was performed 1 December - 31 December, 8 AM to 4 PM. 

Schedule alternated daily between 8 hours counted on each ladder and a 

split-shift four hours per day on each ladder.

Special Fishery Investigations 

57. Sonic tagging studies to trace the rate of salmon fall-back 

over the spillway or through the turbines was conducted in the spring 

by U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service personnel. 

58. Studies were conducted by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service to determine the numbers of downstream migrant fingerlings which 

collected in the main unit headgate slots, the probable percentage of 

the run which they constituted and the time period which they spent in 

the slots. Migrants were dipped from the slots, counted and released. 

A certain percentage of these were marked and taken back upstream and 

released. The numbers of these marked fish recaptured in the slots 

were used to indicate the percentage of the run which collected in 

the slots.
