STEELHEAD OVER COLUMBIA AND SNAKE RIVER DAMS 1953-2010

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.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES

The following are fishway modifications for the 2011/2012 passage year:

• Replaced PIT tag antenna in Bradford Island serpentine section. 

• Dredged along the exit channel for the Bradford Island fishladder. 

• Spillway erosion hole and ogee repair. 

8
• Bradford Island fishway picket lead modifications to insure one inch spacing between leads 

and sill plate and prevent lead bending. Spacers installed.

• Cascades Island lamprey passage system (LPS) extension into the forebay and conversion to 

volitional passage system.

• Repairs to the south monolith gates and guides on B-valves 3 and 4. 

• Debris removal from the Washington shore AWS and accompanying diffusers. 

• B2CC bulkhead converted to permanent hoist with automatic control. 

• B2CC joint repair to fix spalling and decrease channel roughness. 

• Construction of new lamprey passage system at NDE on the north monolith. 

• Washington shore picket lead modifications to insure 1 1⁄2 inch spacing between leads and sill 

plate and prevent lead bending. Spacers installed. 

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. 

Unit 5 draft tube (12/08/11): 1 sturgeon. 

Bradford Island ladder (12/14/11): 9 shad, 4 rainbow trout, 1 peamouth, 2 adult steelhead, and 14 

juvenile salmonids from the junction pool; and 7 steelhead and 1 shad were recovered from the 

A-branch ladder.

Unit 18 Scroll case (12/22/11): 200-250 white sturgeon. These fish were released into the forebay of PH2 

in fair to poor condition. More information can be found in MFR BON 111228 BON U18 Scroll Case. 

Navlock 2 (03/07/12): 12 yearling chinook, 20 sculpin, 7 small mouth bass, and 25 crayfish. 

Unit 11 draft tube (5/16/12): 19 white sturgeon, 3 adult Chinook. 

Unit 6 head gate (05/22/12): 15 juvenile steelhead, 25 yearling Chinook. 

Unit 6 head gate (05/23/12): 66 juvenile salmonids (primarily yearling Chinook, some steelhead 

and sockeye).

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

 be compared with counts from 1950 on.

 3Because of the heavy shad run, fish counters were not asked to count lamprey from June 1 through July 27.

MONTHLY COUNT OF LAMPREY at

BONNEVILLE DAM 19391

 - 1969, 1997 – 2012 

The counts in the following table represent an approximation of trends, only. Lamprey are difficult to

count. They move back and forth in the count window, spend long periods of time resting and are more

likely to pass at night than salmonids. 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 

42
water supply during the entire operation to reduce fish stranding. Fishway areas not included on 

this list are inspected by ROV.

2.) Tally included: 230 adult shad, 1 carp, 7 whitefish, 1 pikeminnow, 1 steelhead, 1 rainbow trout, 3 

juvenile salmonids captured and returned to 

tailwater. Four adult sturgeon were pushed to tailwater from section below the 180 bend. Eight adult 

lamprey captured for Nez Perce.

3.) 29 adult lamprey captured for Nez Perce to augment Pacific Lamprey production in the Lower

Snake/Clearwater Basins; all other fish released to tailwater.

TURBINE DEWATERING PROCEDURES

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

operational guidelines. The most important guideline includes immediate tail log installation 

after unit shut down. If a turbine unit fails, dewatering 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 (sc) and 

draft tubes (dt) 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.

When a unit is taken out of service for maintenance, the cooling water strainers are sometimes 

disassembled. Due to the concern of juvenile lamprey entrainment and the threat of zebra/quagga 

mussels, this area is inspected. Fisheries staff was not always notified when these are 

disassembled. Therefore it has been put into the preventative maintenance program as a reminder 

to maintenance staff.

Dewatering Fish Salvage Discussion 

All efforts are made to prevent fish mortalities. When mortalities occur, procedures are analyzed 

to determine how to correct for future dewaterings. One lamprey mortality from the east ladder 

lower dewatering occurred from being stepped on. Two juvenile salmonid mortalities in unit 11 

were from unknown causes. Sufficient water was available. 

 

TRIBAL SHAD FISHERY

Yakima tribal fishermen did not conduct a shad fishery for 2012. Alternative fishing methods 

were explored in other locations. There has been no indication of revisiting the east fishway exit 

as a fishing site again, mainly due to the documented fallback behavior of spring Chinook during 

the fishing activity. 

RESEARCH

The following are a list of fish related research and contract personnel that were on site during 

the 2012 passage season. 

Battelle (PNNL) - Conducted juvenile passage acoustic telemetry (JSAT) monitoring of 

powerhouse, spillway and sluiceway as part of the overall performance testing program for the 

spring but were unable to complete the summer testing due to flood conditions in 2011. Summer 

performance testing resumed for 2012. 

University of Idaho – Study involved the monitoring of movements of adult Pacific lamprey 

outfitted with half-duplex PIT tags at The Dalles Dam.

Oregon Dept of Fish and Wildlife – Captured via electro-shocking and fishing directly into BRZ 

areas using hook and line, tagged, and collected biological data from northern pikeminnow, 

44
smallmouth bass, and walleye as part of the ODFW “Northern Pikeminnow Management 

Program”. 

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife – Continued to provide once monthly fishway 

inspections of adult and juvenile systems. 

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife – Performed dam angling from various locations 

on the dam to remove northern pikeminnow. 

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife – Continued to perform fish counting at the north 

and east fishways via count stations. 

Pacific States Marine Fish Commission – Sampled North Wasco PUD turbine juvenile bypass 

system per FERC requirement.

Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission - Participated in the Northern Pikeminnow 

Management Program (NPMP) dam angling fishery. Angling activities in support of study 

included hook and line capture, holding, PIT-tagging, examination, and gastric lavage of 

encountered smallmouth bass. 

Fisheries Field Unit – Provided over site and standardization to the piscivorous bird monitoring 

program at the project. 

Fisheries Field Unit – Evaluation of interaction between overwintering American bald eagles and 

the avian array at The Dalles Dam.

U.S. Dept of Agriculture – Provided avian hazing April 15 to July via pyrotechnics and avian 

lines prior to juvenile passage season at Nav-lock peninsula.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service – Continued evaluation of adult lamprey passage and behavior 

using underwater video cameras and Dual Frequency Identification Sonar (DIDSON) camera to 

document adult lamprey as they negotiate the fish count station in the north and east fishways 

and the upper section of the north fishway at The Dalles Dam from 1 June through 30 October 

2012. 

Umatilla Tribe – Trapped lamprey between count stations picketed leads and areas of the 

fishway for restoring lamprey to the Umatilla Basin. 

Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation – Captured adult Pacific lamprey as part 

of the on-going project to restore lamprey to the “tribes ceded waters”. CTUIR worked with the 

Nez Perce and Warm Springs tribes to help with lamprey collection efforts.

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 stranded and /or trapped in shallow pools 

behind weirs. 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.

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 

.

Discussion 

2012 was a good year for the JD fish passage as all JD Fishways performed well and without a 

major failure. 

There has been a significant improvement in the Turbine Trashrack Drawdown, which declined 

in 2012 to 0 from 3.5 % OOC in 2011. This was due to an increased monitoring by JD Fisheries 

and intensive/ proactive raking of MUs trashracks by JD Structural crew. 

JD North Fishway’s Entrance Differential was OOC 4.2 % of time in 2012, but this was due to 

problems created by an intermediate/incomplete stage of the two years’ construction schedule for 

its entrance improvements contract. Specifically, the mid channel velocities were lower than 

anticipated in September 2012 (related to low tailrace levels that time of year,) and the only 

practical remedy, was to run the ladder with an increased entrance differential (> 2.0 ‘,) which 

showed an improved fish passage. It is expected that the completion of the JD N Entrance 

improvements in early 2013, will eliminate the above mentioned ladder velocities’ issues. 

JD South Fishway’s Entrance Differentials OOCs (SE1, NE1 & 2) were related to the necessary 

outage of the AWS in April 2012, when AWS turbine 3 was returning back to service after a 

three years long overhaul. 

Unit Priority OOCs were a result of the necessary, biannual Line 1 maintenance outage, resulting 

in MU 1-4 OOS in October 2012.

FISH LADDER OPERATING SCHEDULE

Washington Ladder

1 January - 2 February Ladder in service. 

2 February – 16 February Ladder dewatered for annual maintenance. 

16 February - 31 December Ladder in service. 

Oregon Ladder

1 January - 4 January Ladder in service. 

4 January – 31 January Ladder in orifice flow for annual maintenance, not 

 dewatered due to failed exit crane. 

31 January - 31 December Ladder in service.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES

Both ladders had new electrical wiring installed for the exit cranes. New cranes 

will be installed the winter of 2013. 

Washington ladder maintenance activities consisted of a camera inspection of 

diffuser gratings with maintenance performed on all above-water structures and in the 

ladder to tailwater elevation. The junction pool still can not be dewatered due to 

problems with the concrete spillway bulkheads. 

 The Wasco county PUD was out of service from 31 January to 17 February for 

annual maintenance. 

83
Due to failure of the exit crane, the Oregon ladder was not dewatered. Activities 

consisted of annual maintenance performed on above water structures, all regulating 

equipment and the exit traveling screens. PIT tag detectors were replaced at the count 

station. For lamprey passage, the project installed stilts on SFEW2. Camera inspections 

of all diffuser gratings were completed. 

Fish pump 2 remains out of service for major overhaul. Fish pumps 1 and 3 were 

out of service from 4 January to 31 January for annual maintenance. Both pumps were 

operational from 1 March to 31 December. 

The 1000 cfs gravity conduit was never closed due to failure of the exit crane 

which is required to close the Tainter valve at the conduit’s intake and/or failure of the 

roto-valves which are at the conduit’s discharges which also need to be replaced. We 

were able to modify the SeaSnake camera to conduct the required ladder diffuser 

inspection. 

The juvenile bypass channel was operated for both juvenile and adult fallback 

passage, from 29 March to 20 December. From 3 to 9 April, the system was in 

emergency bypass due to failure of rectangular screen cleaning device which was 

repaired and for repainting the main full flow flume. From 6 November to 20 December, 

the system was in emergency bypass again due to failure of the rectangular screen 

cleaning device. When in emergency bypass, the system does not provide auxiliary flow 

to the Oregon ladder’s north powerhouse entrances.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES

Water temperatures were recorded hourly from north and south fish ladder exit pools and 

the downstream end of the primary dewaterer. Hourly readings were taken from June 20 

to October 18. The purpose is to determine if summer spill has any effects on exit pool 

temperatures. 

All fish pumps were out of service from 1 January through 15 February. Additionally, 

fish pump 2 was out of service Feb 15 – Apr 18 (misaligned diffuser), Aug 25-27 (failed 

thrust pump cooling water flow meter), and Nov 21- present (shaft realignment and 

replacement of the bearing housing).

Lamprey passage improvements were constructed in the upper fish ladder weirs during 

the last winter outage. These improvements included ramping the downstream access to 

raised orifices as well as excavating approximately 1.5 inch high by 12 inch wide orifices 

at the floor / weir intersection. These improvements allow adult lamprey an easier 

attachment transition through this challenging ladder section.

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

fallbacks from 1 April to 17 December.

LoMo’s RSW was in service as per requirements of 2012 operating year.

FISH LADDER OPERATING SCHEDULE

1 January – 2 January Ladder in service.

3 January – 15 February Ladder dewatered for annual maintenance.

16 February – 31 December Ladder in service.

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.

Using a concrete substrate monitor 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.

 NSE 1 and NSE 2 operators failed in 2010. Again in 2012, these weirs were 

positioned fixed at approximately 631.5 feet to maintain best adult fish passage 

conditions throughout the year. 

Auxiliary Fish Pump 3 failed on September 25 and remained out of service for the 

remainder of the year. Pumps 1 and 2 were increased in RPM to “make-up” additional 

water. To make-up lost head differential, NPE 2 was raised and closed off on September 

27 for the remainder of the year.

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

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 2012, hourly readings were taken 

continuously from June 1 to October 7. In addition, substrate media at the ladder exit pool was 

examined monthly for zebra and quagga mussels from March through December. 

 Normal maintenance activities on the adult fish ladder complex took place during the 

January 4 – February 13 fishway outage. A visual inspection was conducted on all diffuser 

gratings, gate valves were checked and repaired, fish pumps were serviced, adult fish counting 

machinery was serviced, picketed leads were refurbished, windows were cleaned and the 

viewing room window cleaning brush was checked. 

 

 Problems continued with the weir motor and cable control system on north shore fishway 

entrance number 1 (NSE-1) from May 31, 2011. Inspection in 2011 had revealed that the cable 

had broken and the weir gate had dropped to the sill. The weir motor was also burned up. A 

temporary adjustment was done on the weir gate by crane on June 7, 2011 and the gate was 

dogged off at 635.0 feet by cables. This setting was maintained until July 22, 2011 when an Aframe and chain hoist system was put in place to adjust the weir depth relative (at this point 

628.5 feet) to the tailwater elevation. The gate remains in this state. 

The ladder was dewatered early for the winter 2013 maintenance season in order to 

facilitate work being done in the ladder to improve lamprey passage. New grating is also being 

installed in the powerhouse channel. 

153
During the 2012 fish season, the adult fish trap at Lower Granite Dam was operated 

between March 8 and November 19. Unlike the 2011 season, it was necessary to take the trap 

out of service several times due to water temperatures exceeding 70°F. The trap was taken out of 

service for 24 hours starting at 0740 hours on July 18 due to water temperatures in excess of 

70°F. The adult fish trap was shut down again at 0700 hours on the morning of Thursday July 

26 due to high water temperatures. The trap temperature at the time of shutdown was 71.0 

Degrees F. On July 30 at 0730 hours the adult fish trap was again placed in operation, as water 

temperatures had decreased into the 67 Degree F. range. The adult fish trap was once again shut 

down at 0704 hours on the morning of Sunday August 5 due to high water temperatures. The 

trap water temperature at the time of shutdown was 71.5 Degrees F. On August 9 at 0730 hours 

the adult fish trap was again placed in operation, as water temperatures had decreased into the 68 

Degree F. range. On August 12 at 0700 hours the adult fish trap was shut down again because of 

high water temperatures in their system. Adult fish trap operations resumed on August 28 

During 2012 the adult fish trap sample rate was set at a 10% sample rate for the start of the 

season but was increased to 15% on August 28 and remained at that rate for the duration of the 

season. 

One sort-by-code project was also continued from 2011: 1) diversion of up to 15 LemhiOrigin Chinook for radio-tagging. 

Fall Chinook Transport: Collection of adult fall Chinook for transport to Lyons Ferry 

Hatchery and the Nez Perce Hatchery at Cherry Lane began on August 28. Actual trucking 

operations began on Friday, August 31. The hatcheries are picked up fish when numbers on 

hand were sufficient to warrant a trip to the trap. Trucking operations continued into November 

when hatchery needs were met. 

 

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

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

 from March 25 to December 17.

Note: Out of criteria dates provided above reflect those periods of time when the adult 

fishway was out of operational flow and/or head differential criteria. Upstream fish 

passage is possible for one to several days before and after the indicated dates. “Ladder 

flow” are periods of reduced fishway flow that still allow fish passage. 

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES

Adult 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 

images are streamed 24 hours per day to digital video recorders at each dam. The fish 

counting staff then playback these images on computers in a fast-forward mode to 

identify when fish are passing and then slowed to identify and count fish. At the end of 

each day all counts are electronically tallied and a fish-count report is generated for each 

dam and posted on Grant County PUD’s Fish, Wildlife, and Water Quality’s website: 

http://www.gcpud.org/naturalResources/fishWaterWildlife/fishCounts.php. This site 

provides several years of fish counts and a Priest Rapids Dam fish count summary. The 

fish-counting season for both hydroelectric projects run from April 15 through November 

15, annually. 

Adult PIT- Tag Detection

The PIT-tag detection array in both ladders of Priest Rapids Dam are operated 

continuously when the adult fishways are operational. PIT tag reader upgrades and minor 

relocation to the arrays are planned during the 2013 – 2014 winter outage period. There 

are no adult passage PIT-tag arrays at Wanapum Dam.

Off Ladder Adult Fish Trap (OLAFT)

The adult fish trap is located off the left bank fish ladder at Priest Rapids Dam. The 

Yakama Nation trapped adult sockeye salmon for a total of 11 days from June 25 to July 

12 for the Lake Cle Elum and Cooper Lake sockeye reintroduction program. Washington 

Department of Fish and Wildlife operated the trap for 38 days from July 10 November 14 

as part of its steelhead stock assessment, for 21 days between September 5 and November 

14 as part of its fall Chinook salmon age composition and spawning site location studies, 

and 21 days from September 5 to November 14 for Priest Rapids Hatchery broodstock 

collection feasibility program. 

Adult Lamprey Passage Study

Grant County PUD continued the study to identify and address hydro project impacts to 

upstream migrating adult Pacific lamprey. Priest Rapids Dam video cameras are used to 

asses lamprey passage at ladder weir orifices, installed aluminum plating and fish 

counting stations. Strategically placed HDX-PIT arrays are used to evaluate passage 

success and travel time within the Priest Rapids and Wanapum Dam fish ladders.

WELLS DAM

FISH COUNTING SCHEDULE

The adult counting schedule at Wells Dam is from May 1 through November 15, though passage 

data is recorded each day of the year, and that data is available from Douglas PUD upon request. 

Fish are counted by reviewing digital-video files from previous days. From 1967 through 1997, 

counts were reported for a 16-hour period (0500-2100 PST). Since 1998, 24-hour counts (0000-

2400) have been reported. Chinook are arbitrarily separated into three populations based upon 

date of passage through the ladders: Spring Chinook – May 1 through June 28, summer Chinook

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

FISH LADDER OPERATING SCHEDULE

Other than during routine wintertime inspection and maintenance (performed on only one ladder 

at a time), the two fishways at Wells Dam operated continuously during 2012. 

West Ladder Maintenance

3 January to 14 February 2012 for inspection, maintenance, and installation of HDX/FDX PITtag detection in Pool 19. 

East Ladder Maintenance

4 December 2012 to 24 January 2013, outage for inspection, maintenance, and installation of 

HDX/FDX PIT-tag detection in Pool 19. 

JUVENILE PASSAGE FACILITES

The juvenile bypass system at Wells Dam capitalizes on the hydrocombine design by using flow 

to the turbines to attract fish to bypass spillways located between turbine silos and above turbine 

intakes. During the juvenile outmigration, bypass baffles and barriers are installed in spillway 

intake slots to partially constrict the five even-numbered spillways. This configuration provides 

up to 11,000 cfs of bypass flow. 

During periods when plant discharge exceeds the combined turbine and bypass capacity, excess 

water is passed through non-bypass spillways and bypass bays as necessary to address 

Washington Department of Ecology TDG standards and provisions of the Wells Emergency 

Action Plan. Gates on non-bypass spillways are opened and bypass barriers and baffles on 

bypass spillways are removed sequentially with increasing flow in a prescribed order that

concentrates involuntary spill in the center of the project to minimize TDG. As discharge 

declines, bypass barriers are reinstalled and non-bypass spill gates closed in the reverse order in 

which they were removed and opened. 

207
Flows at Wells Dam during the 2012 juvenile migration (April – August) were the third highest 

on record during that period (behind 1972 and 1997). Average monthly river flows were 151 

percent, 145 percent, 142 percent, 192 percent, and 152 percent of the 42-year average flows for 

the months of April, May, June, July, and August, respectively. Bypass operations began on 

April 9 at 00:00 hours, and operated continuously until terminated at 24:00 hours on August 19, 

for a total of 133 days. Douglas PUD provided bypass passage for 99.96 percent of the yearling 

Chinook migration, 99.84 percent of the steelhead, 100 percent of the sockeye, 99.98 percent of 

the coho, and 99.86 percent of the sub-yearling Chinook passing Wells Dam in 2012.
