TABLE 3 and TABLE 4 

STEELHEAD OVER COLUMBIA AND SNAKE RIVER DAMS 1953-2008 

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.

Upstream Migrant Transportation channel (UMT) picket leads. 

** The Washington shore exit was closed from 1756 until 1940 on 14 January to facilitate a 

search for a possible suicide victim in the fishway. 

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

Sealion exclusion devices (SLEDS) installed at the fishway entrances to prevent sea lion 

access to the fish ladder. New FOG SLEDs manufactured and installed at Powerhouse II. 

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 1 tail logs (2/13/08): five sturgeon, one unclipped steelhead, 14 sculpin, four crayfish, one 

sucker, one juvenile Chinook 

Unit 18 tail logs (2/21/08): 23 live sturgeon, two sculpin; two sturgeon mortalities observed. 

Unit 16 draft tube (3/6/08): one 7-8’ sturgeon, two 5-6’ sturgeon, 21 other sturgeon 

Unit 16 tail logs (3/31/08): 15 sturgeon and one catfish 

Unit 3 draft tube (4/15/08): one chinook smolt and two fry 

Unit 3 scroll case (4/18/08): 35 juvenile salmonids

Unit 3 tail logs (5/29/08): Nine sculpin, one catfish, two Chinook smolt mortalities 

Unit 1 scroll case and draft tube (7/8/08): 150 juvenile salmonids, six adult shad, 11 adult 

lamprey, six 2-3’ sturgeon. 

Unit 8 tail logs (7/14/08): Four juvenile chinook, one juvenile steelhead, four sculpin, two 

sturgeon, one bass. 

Unit 1 tail logs (8/5/08): Two juvenile steelhead, one juvenile chinook, one adult unclipped

 1No data are available for 1938.

 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.

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

MONTHLY COUNT OF LAMPREY at

BONNEVILLE DAM 19391

 - 1969, 1997 – 2008 

The counts in the following table can be considered an approximation of trends, only. Lamprey are

difficult animals to count in that they move back and forth in front of the fish count window. They also 

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.

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 COUNTING SCHEDULE 

Apr 1 – Oct 31 Visual counting daily 0400-2000 hours Pacific Standard Time. 

FISHWAY OPERATING SCHEDULE 

The following information includes fishway operation for calendar year 2008. Total 

length of time for annual fishway outages can be determined by referring to previous 

years’ annual reports. 

North Adult Fishway 

Jan 1-Feb 16: in full operation with attraction water 

Feb 19 – Feb 29: dewatered for winter maintenance (ladder flow only for 48 hrs 

prior) 

 March 1- Dec 31: in full operation with attraction water 

 Aug 6: attraction water off half day for required ROV grating inspection 

South Adult Fishway 

Jan 1- Feb 20: dewatered for winter maintenance (back to service delayed due to 

fish turbine problems) 

Feb 21 -Dec 1: in full operation with attraction water (two fish turbines operation, 

third OOS on overhaul) 

 Dec 3 – Dec 31: dewatered for maintenance (ladder flow only 72 hrs prior) 

 Aug 6: attraction water off half day for required ROV grating inspection 

Comments: South fishway operated with two out of the total of three AWS fish 

turbines and with two out of the total of four floating orifices (FOGs) in its 

collection channel due to the overhaul activities of turbine # 3 lasting entire 2008 

passage season. This operation was coordinated in advance with agencies through 

FPOM and we also scrutinized the fish passage and a number of out of criteria 

which showed no significant difference in 2008 as compared with the previous 

years. 

Smolt Monitoring Facility 

Jan 1-March 30: dewatered 

 Apr 1-Augt 14: in full operation with juvenile sampling 

Aug 15-Aug 31: water temperature 70 ̊ F. Condition sampling of 100 fish on 

Monday and Thursday. System in bypass at switch gate on other days. 

 Sep 1- Sep 14: in full operation with juvenile sampling. 

 Sep 15-Nov 30: system in bypass for full flow PIT tag detection. 

 Dec 1-Dec 31: System dewatered for winter maintenance. 

Juvenile Bypass System 

Jan 1-Apr 1: 1/3 gatewell orifice open, rotated twice weekly 

Apr 1-Dec 31: full operation (submersible travelling screens removed 2 weeks 

late) 

56 
Spillway 

Jan 1-Apr 9: closed (except for a few, short duration, preseason TSW tests): 

 Apr 10-Aug31: 0%day, 60% night spring - 30% 24hr/day summer. 

(late April – July: 30% versus 40%, 24 hrs spill according to experimental block 

design for TWS evaluations) 

Sept 1-Nov 31: Bay 2 only, 1.5 KCFS daylight hours only (attraction water for 

north fishway) 

 Dec 1-Dec 31: closed 

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.

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. 

The gear reducers for the north shore AWS pumps continue to be problems. The north 

shore adult fishway was operated with 2 fish pumps and no back up pump the entire 

season. Repairs are on going. 

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. The research unit also operated the adult fish trap to radio tag 

adult steelhead trout and Chinook salmon 

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 downstream 

end of the primary dewaterer. Hourly readings were taken from 21 May to 7 August. 

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 13 March 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 18 December. 

First year of RSW operation and testing from 3 April to the end of spill season 31 

August.

FISHWAY ACTIVITIES 

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

and reported monthly to determine is 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. Additionally, the 

University of Idaho and the United States Geological Survey cooperated on a research 

project attempting to correlate fish passage to varying spill patterns. 

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

fallbacks from 1 April to 17 December. 

A substrate monitor is in place near the ladder exit to monitor for zebra mussels, no 

mussels were observed.

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 2008, readings were 

taken from 1 June to 30 September. 

During 2008, the adult fish trap was operated continuously from 7 March through 25 

November with the exception of a period from 8 August to 23 August when water 

temperatures were too high for fish handling. The trap remained in operation through 25 

November. Trucking of fall Chinook salmon to hatchery facilities ended on 24 

November. The trap was dewatered for the winter on 26 November. 

Early in the season the trap was operated to monitor for steelhead and also to do some 

limited radio-tagging of steelhead. Starting in April, the sort by code system was utilized 

to monitor PIT-tagged spring chinook. Chinook of Lemhi River origin diverted by this 

operation were radio-tagged for Idaho Fish and Game and released back into the ladder. 

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

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

operational period and ended on 24 November. 

The juvenile fish facility was operated for fish transport/bypass from 25 March to 1 

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

from 25 March to 13 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 operated the Priest Rapids off-ladder adult 

fish trap (OLAFT) a total of 32 days between 10 July and 16 October, 2008 as part of its 

steelhead stock assessment. Grant PUD will be making structural and operational 

modifications to the OLAFT during the winter and spring of 2009. The OLAFT will be 

ready for use by June 1, 2009.

FISH FACILITY ACTIVITIES

The Rock Island Bypass Trap was operated by the Washington Department of Fish and 

Wildlife from 1 April through 31 August 2008. Juvenile fish were sampled daily during 

that time period. 

 

The adult fish PIT tag system was operational throughout the 2008 adult fish migration. 

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

In 2008, the Chelan County PUD monitored passage of radio-tagged adult bull trout at the 

Rock Island Project, and in the tributaries. The purpose of the bull trout study is to assess the 

behavior of the fish as they migrate through the dam, associated pool and tributaries. 

Monitoring will occur through June 2009. 

From 17 June to 5 September 2008, 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 1,756 pikeminnow were trapped and removed from the river.

FISH FACILITY ACTIVITIES 

The adult fish PIT tag system was operational throughout the 2008 adult fish migration. PIT 

tag detections in the fishway were uploaded daily to PTAGIS. 

In 2008, the Chelan County PUD monitored passage of radio-tagged adult bull trout at the 

Rocky Reach Project, and in the tributaries. The purpose of the bull trout study is to assess 

the behavior of the fish as they migrate through the dam, associated pool and tributaries. 

Monitoring will occur through June 2009. 

From 2 June to 5 September 2008, the Chelan County PUD operated two Northern 

pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus oregonensis) traps in the upper fish ladder. A total of 3,267 

pikeminnow were trapped and removed from the river. 

The juvenile fish bypass system was operated for fish passage from 1 April to 3 September 

2008. 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 

Annual maintenance is performed on the ladders at Wells to clean the ladder of debris and 

service the attraction flow pumps. During this time the ladders are taken out of service and dewatered. The dates of this work in 2008 were as follows: 

East Ladder 

December 3, 2008 – January 29, 2009 Inspection and Bi-Annual Maintenance 

West Ladder 

January 8 – 19, 2008 Inspection and Maintenance 

ADULT PASSAGE FACILITIES 

The two fish ladders at Wells Dam are conventional staircase type fish ladders with 73 pools. 

The ladders are located at the east and west endwalls of the dam. The lower 56 pools discharge a 

constant 48 cfs dropping one foot at each pool into the attraction chamber in the lower ladder. 

Discharge from pool 73 through pool 57 is through two 30 inch by 16 1/2 inch submerged 

orifices. Discharge from pool 56 to pool 1 is over a seven foot wide overflow section in the wall 

between pools with additional flow through two 18 inch by 15 inch submerged orifices. Pools 

67 and 68 have adult PIT-tag detection weirs that interrogate passage of all adults just prior to 

the ladder exit. Information on PIT-tag detection of adults using both east and west ladders is 

found on the PTAGIS web page (http://www.pittag.org/ ). Pool No. 64 of both fishways 

contains facilities for counting fish. The main features of this facility are a counting room with 

an observation window adjacent to the fish ladder and a telescoping gate and light panel used to 

guide the fish closer to the observation window. At pool 40 are provisions for sorting and 

trapping various species of fish. The fisheries agencies and tribes develop broodstock collection 

protocols at the beginning of each season for collection of spring and summer chinook, sockeye 

and coho salmon and summer steelhead. These plans are submitted for review by the fisheries 

agencies and tribes that serve on the Wells Habitat Conservation Plan Coordinating Committee. 

192
At the bottom of the fish ladder, projecting downstream from the line of the hydrocombine is the 

portion of the endwall structure which incorporates the functions of fish attraction and collection. 

Two-turbine pumps deliver attraction flow to the water supply chamber located adjacent to the 

ladder. The total flow from the turbine pump(s) plus the 48 cfs coming down the ladder from the 

reservoir is discharged to the tailwater through a single fish attraction opening per ladder. These 

openings are eight-foot wide vertical slot openings with vertical miter gates. Originally an 

additional set of side gates were provided. Ladder entrances were designed to have the side gate 

be open at 2 – 4’ and the end gate would automatically adjust its width to maintain a one foot 

differential in the collection chamber. Since July 1970, the side gate has been set at a four foot 

opening with the end gate fixed at six feet. A 1.5 foot differential is maintained as the twoturbine pumps adjust output. On June 29, 2000, the joint fisheries parties agreed to have the side 

entrances permanently closed. This decision was based upon several years of radio telemetry 

studies with various species of anadromous fish that showed improved passage times with the 

side gates closed. The 1.5 foot differential remains in affect for the entrance to the ladder. 

In 2008, the differential of 1.5 was relaxed to 1.0 feet from October 3 to 31 to encourage adult 

lamprey passage. The 1.5 feet of head moving through the Entrance Gallery Openings would 

produce velocities of just under ten feet per second, which may be excessive for lamprey 

passage. These steps will be further watched in 2009. 

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 

period ran from April 12 through June 13 for a total of 63 days and a total discharge of 1.24 

MAF, or 6.5% of total project discharge. The summer bypass started on June 14 and ran through 

August 26 for a total of 74 days and a project discharge of 1.65 MAF or 8.5% of the total 

discharge. 

MISCELLANEOUS 

 

In 2008, radio telemetry receivers were located at Wells Dam to monitor bull trout radio-tagged 

by the USFWS. Antenna and receiving units were installed at Wells Dam as well as in 

neighboring tributaries.

The 2008 season provided the highest count of salmonids in the history of fish counts at Wells 

Dam. Sockeye salmon destined for Canada provided the highest counts of sockeye ever seen at 

Wells (165,334); the summer Chinook count was the seventh highest count (22,435); the fall 

Chinook were the fourth largest year (6,423); and winter steelhead were the sixth highest count 

(9,808). The high counts with some days of over 10,000 salmon a day taxed the two fish 

counters dedicated to each of the two fish ladders. Relief staff came in after hours to assist and 

work to get back on a one day delay on reporting passage information. 

The District completed the second flow guiding structures in the West Fish Collection Gallery. 

Radio telemetry work done in 2007 demonstrated that a net reduction in passage time was seen 

by fish that passed the east ladder that had one of these structures in place. The HCPCoordinating Committee agreed to have the District provide the second flow guiding structure to 

help reduce time of passage through the collection gallery. This work was completed in 

February of 2008.
