FOREWORD 

This annual report on fish passage at Bonneville, The Dalles and 

McNary Dams provides information and statistical data on the passage of 

fish, operation of fish facilities, and other activities associated with 

the migration of fish during the calendar year 1960 at each of these dams. 

The fish facilities at Bonneville Dam have been in operation for 

twenty-three years, at McNary for seven years, and The Dalles for four 

years. In 1960 fish counting was performed in the periQds (inclusive) 

shown below: 

Bonneville Dam 

The DaIle s Dam 

McNary Dam 

1 March - 30 November 

5 April - 26 November 

1 April - 31 October 

Summaries of fish counts by species are included herein for each year 

of operation. New material in tables and graphs is presented in form 

s~ilar to that in previous reports to maintain continuity and permit 

comparison with data for prior years. In addition to the tables and 

graphs, general site maps and photographs are included to show the 

location of project fish facilities and other physical features and to 

supplement descriptive information. Investigations and research performed 

during the year at each dam are described briefly. 

This report is distributed to biologists, State and Federal fishery 

departments, universities, libraries, and other agencies and individuals 

interested in these fisheries, within the limits of copies printed and 

requests received. The use of abstracts or data from this report is 

permiSSible provided credit for the source is given to the Corps of 

Engineers.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PASSAGE OF FISH 

BONNEVILLE, THE DALLES AND McNARY DAMS 

Calendar Year 1960 

BONNEVILLE DAM 

SUMMARY 

1. The total count of all species of fish was 841,830 at Bonneville 

Dam in 1960. The 23-year average is 928,268 fish. The chinook salmon 

total for the year was 256,049, which is below the 1938-1960 average of 

354,045. Spring and.. Slimmer run chinook, blueback and steelhead show an 

ascending trend. line as determined from the Bonneville counts but the fall 

chinook, silver and steelhead continue to decline. The Columbia River 

total population trend lines of salmonid runs entering the mouth of the 

river would have to include fish taken by commercial and sport fishermen. 

The preparation of such trend lines is beyond the scope of this report. 

2. The salmonid total count comprised 256,049 chinook, 59,713 blueback, 3,268 silver, 1,026 chum and 113,676 steelhead trout. 

3. Yearly total counts of all fish Vlhich ascended over Bonneville 

Dam during the period 1938-1960, inclusive, appear in table 1. Monthly 

totals for 1960 are listedm table 2. Daily records, by months, are 

compiled in tables 3 to 20, inclusive. Peak days of fish migration by 

species for the period of 1938 through 1960 are shown in table 21. 

4. Monthly records of salmon and. steelhead trout for the period 

1938-1960 are shown in tables 22-26, inclusive, and miscellaneous species 

counted during the same time are shown in table 27.

:Banneville Dam 

5. In 1960, the maximum number of salmonids counted in one day 

(10,327) was tallied on 5 September, and the maximum number of' miscellaneous 

species (11,92l) was recorded on 21 July. The maximum number of all 

species ascending the ladder in one day was 23,051 on 28 July. 

6. The daily fish counts of the four principal salmonid species 

tallied at Bonneville, The Dalles and McNary Dams in 1960 are shown 

graphically on plates 1 to 4, inclusive. 

7. Fish counting was io1 tlated on 1 March. The gates of the 

counting stations were left open continuously day and night during all of 

1960. Sample counting was conducted by alternating at 4-hour intervals 

between the Bradford Island and the Washington Shore counting stations. 

The 1960 fish counting schedule is shown in paragraph 38. The sample 

counts were multiplied by. predeter.mined factors to estimate the number of 

fish passing the fish counting stations. The factored figures are the 

fish counts recorded and mentioned in this report. 

8. As in previous years during periods when annual winter fish 

facility maintenance operations were underway, at least one cam.ple.te fishway system was continually accessible for the passage of migrant fish. 

9. The location of fish facill ties and appurtenant features in 

relation to other structures at Bonneville Dam. is shown on photograph l-B 

and on the General Site Map CL-144-54. 

10. Several snowstorms occurring at well separated intervals each 

deposited 8 to 12 inches of snow. The latest snow fell on 4, 5 and 6 

March. A nOl".lll8.1 spring developed following the snow. A total of 84.82 

2 
Bonneville Dam 

inches of precipitation was recorded in 1960. The maximum. air temperature 

of 100 degrees F. occurred on 7 July. The minimum air temperature of 20 

degrees was recorded on 3 March. 

Spring Chinook Salmon 

( 1 March-31 May) 

11. The spring chinook total of 69,597 was well below the 23-year 

average of 81,819 fish. See table 22 and plate 5. The maximum day's count 

was 6,213 on 29 April. The peak days of abundance of spring chinook of this 

and other years, along with the peak days of other runs, are shown in 

table 21. Table 28 shows the number and percentage of the spring run that 

ascended each fish ladder. The spring run comprised 27.18 percent of the 

total chinook run. See table 29. Plate 13 illustrates the trend of the 

spring run counts. 

Summer Run Chinook Salmon 

( 1 June-15 August) 

12. The 90,071 summer run chinook counted in 1960 shows E' significant 

increase over the 23-year average of 63,176. On 14 June, the day of 

greatest abundance, 7,151 chinook were tabulated. See table 21. Percentages of summer run chinook salmon counted at each ladder in 1960 and the 

percentages of this run to the toal chinook count for each year, 1938-1960 

inclusive, are shown in tables 28 and 29, respectively. Plate 14 shows 8 

very slight ascending trend line of this race. 

3 
Bonneville Dam 

Fall Run Chinook 

(16 August-30 November) 

13. The 23-year average for the count of fall run chinook is 209,040; 

only 96,381 were tallied in 1960. The greatest one day fall run chinook 

count occurred 5 September when 7,848 of these fish passed over the dam. 

14. The chinook migration periods are shown on plate 5. Table 29 

shows the number and percent of the totals of the spring, summer and fall 

runs for the period 1938-1960, inclusive. The fall run chinook trend line 

shown on plate 15 shows a decline in the number of this segment of the 

total chinook migration counted at Bonneville Dam each year. 

Chinook Jacks or Grilse 

15. The 18,204 fish recorded as jacks or grilse constitute 7.11 

percent of the total 1960 run of chinook salmon. The 23-year average is 

10.63 percent. The distribution by number and percentage of the jack 

salmon count between the two fish ladders is shown in table 30. 

16. It was observed that an unusually large percentage of the August 

portion of the fall chinook run was composed of jack salmon. This 

Phenomenon may be allied, as noted by same eminent fisheries biologists, 

to the impoundment of water in various forebays wilich may possibly delay 

the migration of salmon to the ocean until such a time that the fingerlings 

- are perhaps 7 or 8 inches in length; then, when they do go to the ocean, 

they feed in the ocean for a shorter period of time and came back as small 

adul. ts • Fish that go to the ocean as very small individuals may stay in 

the ocean two years or longer and thereby attain much greater size. 

4 
Bonneville Dam 

Blueback Salmon 

17. A total of 59,713 blueback salmon were counted in 1960. The 

23-year average blueback count is 106,717. This run peaked on 23 June 

with 3,695 fish. ~e blueback total count at ~e Dalles Dam was 59,441. 

The total at McNary Dam was 55,372. Data pertaining to blueback counts 

are contained in tables 21, 23 and 32 and plates 2, 6 and 17. 

18. Additional proof that some blueback salmon migrate upstream at 

a very early month was received :from the Resident Biologist at Pelton Dam 

who stated that in mid-February he had observed a bright blueback salmon 

in the fish passage trap on the Deschutes River. Also, several blueback 

have been removed :from fishways during repair operations in February and 

March at Bonneville in earlier years. 

Silver Salmon 

19. The 1960 fish census record shows the passage of' 3,268 silver 

salmon. The average is 7,124; Plate 18 indicates the decline of the silver 

salmon count at Bonneville. Addi tional data are shown on tables 21, 

24 and 33 and plates 3 and 7. No night count percentages were available. 

A greater return had been expected due to hatchery releases several years 

ago. 

Chum. Salmon 

20 • There has been no December fish count since 1949. Inasmuch as 

the chum. run extends into the late fall, the 1,026 fish tallied in 1960 

represents only a portion of the total. The average annual count for this 

5 
Bonneville Dam 

speaies is l, 4l5. Tables l, 2l, 25 and 34 show aomparati ve data. No night 

aount peraentages were applied as none were available. 

2l. Chum, or dog salmon, customarily begin to appear c· t the Bonneville 

aounting stations in October. The migration reaches a minor peak in 

November and continues into December. Therefore, since counting ceases at 

the end of November, a sizeable segment of this run can pass without being 

counted. There has been no attempt to appro:x1ma.te the number of fish that 

go upstream in December. Furthermore, with the counting station~ open at 

all times, it is ,believed by the fish counters and fishway observers that 

a number o:f' the chum salmon move to the forebay before the fish counters 

come on duty, in the morning. During the years when the gates were closed 

at night, many chum salmon were waiting below the counting fence and 

passed through immediately after the opening of the gates. 

Humpback Salmon 

22. No humpback salmon were observed at Bonneville Dam in 1960. 

However, 5 were counted at The Dalles Dam. 

Steel.b.ead Trout 

23. The ll3,676 steeThead tabulated in 1960 is the lowest number 

since 1943 when only 92,l33 were counted. The average count is l43,l42. 

Table 26 shows that during only three years since counting began have 

fewer Salmo gairdneri been censused at this site. Plates 19, 20 and 2l 

show the trends of the various runs of steeThead. The plotted daily 

counts of "the 1960 and previous steeThead runs are shown on plate 8.

Bonneville Dam 

24. On 1 June numerous steelhead fingerlings were removed from the 

scroll case of the powerhouse generating unit undergoing overhaul; these 

fish were released in the tailrace. 

Maximum Abundanee and Yearly Percentage of Salmonids 

Counted over Each Fish Ladder 

25. The day of greatest abundance of salmonidae came on 5 September 

when 10,327 salmon and steelhead were recorded. Of this number 91.80 percent were observed at the Bradford Island station, and 8.20 percent were 

tallied at the Washington shore station. 

26. The comparative percentage usage of the fish ladders by 

salmonid species for the period 1938-1960 is shown in table 37. 

MISCELLANEOUS SPECIES 

27. Detailed statistical data pertaining to these species are 

presented in tables 1, 2, 27, 38, 39 and 40 and population trends are 

shown on plates 23, 24 and 25. 

28. Miscellaneous species of fish, not including lamprey, moved 

most abundantly 30 June when 12,914 of these fish were tallied. The 

peak day for both the miscellaneous fish count including lamprey and the 

lamprey count alone occurred on 27 July when 17,921 miscellaneous fish 

were recorded, of which 16,912 were lamprey. 

Smelt 

29. No smelt were observed in tl:e vicinity of Bonneville Dam in 1960.

Bonneville Dam 

Shad 

30. The numbers of shad reaching the forebay in 1960 were greater 

than in any former year. In 1945 a few more were counted but a substantial 

number of these died on the counting fence after being tallied. Prior to 

1950 the counting stations were located just upstream from weir 69 and 

hydraulic conditions from there to the forebay apparently were too severe 

for many shad to overcome and mortality resulted. They were swept against 

the counting station barriers where the current held their opercles closed 

and caused them to suffocate. 

31. The weirs above weir 69 at the upper end of the Washington shore 

and Bradford Island fishways which were modified during recent years to 

provide more uniform ladder flows for minor fluctuations -in forebay level 

proved to be superior to previously used weirs in passing shad upstream. 

However, many shad still lingered in the ladders below the counting 

sta tions and seemed to swim endlessly agaiDS t the current between weirs. 

It is interesting to note that of the 93,368 shad counted into the forebay 

at Bonneville in 1960, 81,053 of them went on past The Dalles Dam. In 

November, gulls were observed to be feeding on small fish, believed to be 

shad, which were paSSing through the powerhouse and the spillway at The 

Dalles Dam. Furthermore, on 7 November and succeeding days, young shad 

were found on the auxiliary supply screens at Bonneville.

Bonneville Dam 

Sturgeon 

32. No sturgeon were tabulated in 1960; nor were the fishlocks 

operated to pass them upstream. 

33. On 16 May, a clam. shell dredge, working in the navigation 

approach channel, accidentally killed a 2l4-pound female white sturgeon. 

On the basis of the count of eggs in six samples taken fram 35 pounds of 

roe found in the sturgeon, it was camputed that the ovary contained 

approximately 699,000 eggs. 

34. In:f'o:rma.tion and photographs of sturgeon were sent to Yale 

University, the u. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and a Walla Walla f'ree 

lance writer, as requested. French Engineers, planning a dam. on the Sefid 

Ruud River on the Caspian Sea, Iran, requested and were given in:f'o:rma.tion 

on means to pass sturgeon over the dam. 

Lampreys 

35 • The sample count of lam.prey, after factoring, was 177, 898 . 

Except for the higher total of 215,083 in 1959, this is still the grp.atest 

SUlIIll'lB. tion since 1939, when 229,675 (actual tally) were tabula ted. 

36. Numerous lampreys entered the Fisheries Engineering Research 

Laboratory located on the Washington shere where same died on various f'ish 

gratings. These were frozen and stored in the local Oregon Fish Commission 

Hatchery f'or use by the Predatory Animal Control Division of' the U. S. 

Fish and Wildlife Service. 

9 
Bonneville Dam 

37. Progeny of same earlier run of lampreys were noted on the 

auxiliary water supply screens 25 July. This is unusual because they are 

not ordinarily seen in such numbers so early in the season. 

FISH COUNTING SCHEDULE - 1960 

38. The counting gates remained open at all times. 

1 January - 29 February - No counting was performed. Fish were free 

to pass upstream through the open gates at 

. the counting stations.

counting per day. 

1 December - 31 December No counting was performed. 

OVERHAUL, ACTIVITIES, AND OBSERVATIONS 

Excavation for Navigation Channel Below Bonneville 

39. A contract to improve a considerable stretch of the navigation 

channel immediately below Bonneville Dam navigation lock was awarded in 

1960 and work was begun 10 August. This work will change the pattern of 

the river flow in the approaches to the dam and possibly.might alter the 

distribution of the fish to the fish ladders.

Bonneville Dam. 

Weather Notes 

40 • Repairs in the f'ish ladders are conf'ined to winter months when 

there is practically no f'ish movement. During the period 11 January through 

6 March considerable wind, snow and cold hampered normal wintertime activities. 

Similar weather marked the beginning of' repairs to the Bradford Island 

ladder in the f'all of' 1960, but clear cold days f'or the remainder of' the 

year hastened the accomplishment of' the f'ishway work. 

F±sh1ocks 

41. There was no need f'or repairs on the powerhouse or the Bradf'ord 

Island f'ishlocks as they were in good operating condition. However, the 

Washington shore t"ishlock segmental gates were removed during the l.a.te 

1959 and early 1960 repair of' the Washington ladder. The gates and gate 

guides were sandblasted and painted with rust-resistant paint. Rubber 

seals were taken from the South Washington f'ishlock segmental gates and 

placed on the gates of' the North lock. The north f'ish1ock brail was 

removed, completely overhauled and replaced in the f'ish1ock shaf't on 

23 March. The telescoping barrier, which prevents the entry of' f'ish under 

the f'ishlock brail, was equipped with new rollers having grease f'i ttings. 

42. Tentative approval was given to install a new horizontal f'inger 

barrier trap in the north lock, but detail plans f'or the new trap were not 

completed and no trap was installed in 1960. The Washington f'ishlock was 

operated several times to demonstrate the f'ishlock principle to groups of 

students from various schools, including the fisheries management class 

11 
Bonneville Dam 

from Oregon State College. A few fish were lifted, but not as many as 

several years ago, when under different operations, 1,200 or more fish 

were elevated to the forebay at a single lift. 

43. The fishlock at the powerhouse was utilized as a fingerling bypass early in the spring, when 50 million fish were released from the 

hatcheries. The by-pass was created by opening the upstream gates of the 

fishlock to produce a flow of water five or six feet deep which cascaded 

) 

into the locks (see photograph 2-B) from whence it was discharged through 

the downstream gates dropping as a waterfall to the level of the collection 

channeL In early trials the by-pass was first operated by discharging 

into the drainage system but this method was not considered as successful 

as the use of the downstream gate. 

44. The south fishlock of the pair on the Bradford Island side of 

the spillway has been officially abandoned as far as its use as a lock is 

concerned. Many of its removable parts have been Salvaged for use on the 

other locks which are being kept in working order. In 1960 work was 

started to convert this lock into a sump to permit pumping out the entire 

collection bay of the Bradford Island "B" branch fishladder with one pump 

setting. This was accomplished by drilling an opening through an 8-foot 

concrete wall to create a connection with the adjacent diffusion chamber 

at its floor level elevation of minus 20. This permits drainage of water 

into the fishlock and from the lock on through the drain conduit to the 

drain valve shaft, where pumps may be mounted to take the water from the 

system and dump it into tailwater in Bay 18 of the ~pillway. 

12 
Bonneville Dam 

Auxiliary Water Screens 

45. An unusual amount of debris collected on the screens late in the 

summer, causing some damage to these filters. Therefore, the screens had 

to be cleaned at frequent intervals. The amount of summertime trash 

steadily increases; this material consists of fine vegetable fibers, 

algae, and silt. Also for a period in the sp ring the mechanical screens 

had to be washed almost continuously. One operator alternated at hourly 

intervals between the mechanical screens for the auxiliary water supply at 

the Washington shore and the south end of' the spillway. TbI. s f'requent 

washing was continued for approximately 8 weeks. The stationary screens 

at the powerhouse, and at the upper end of the Bradford Island ladder, are 

more troublesome in that they have to be washed by hand methods. At the 

Bradford Island location an automotive crane is used to lift the screen 

sectiOns, one by one, from the slots, to be washed individually with a jet 

of water from a hose. After an entire column of' screens is washed, each 

section or panel is put back in poSition by the ncherry pickern . This job 

requires approximately two hours. 

46. The task of washing the powerhouse auxiliary water supply screens 

is somewhat more readily accomplished by means of the large electric crane 

available at that location, and by the fact that the screens are attached 

in one long column which can be removed as a unit by the crane, carried 

over, and lowered into the fishlock where a stream of water from a hose is 

played upon each section, to wash the debris therefrom. This process 

requires about 45 minutes each time the screens are washed. 

13 
Bonneville Dam 

47. It was necessary that the manually-cleaned screens be washed 

twice per day in the early spring during the same period that the mechanical 

screens were opera ted at 60 -minute intervals. The cleaning of screens has 

no ending,therefore much thought was given to ways and means of obviating 

the necessity of performing this function. The experiments wherein 

fingerling salmon were run through the auxiliary water conduits in 1952, 

1958 and 1959 demonstrated that fingerling salmon, somewhat older than 

advanced fry, could pass with relative impunity through the auxiliary 

water conduit and into the ladder via the diffusion chambers. Very small 

salmon 37 to 52 mm in length, having just completed the absorption of the 

yolk sac, were more fragile, and did not pass through the system with such 

a great degree of safety. As a result of the studies it appeared that if 

low water pressure differentials are maintained between the auxiliary 

conduits and the diffusion chambers fingerling mortality rate could be 

reduced to an acceptable number. When the water pressure is maintained at 

a low figure in the Bradford Island conduit it is not possible to provide 

water to the fishway at the wye. The weir crests in the "A" and liB" branch 

ladders could be contracted down to l6 feet of overflow section per weir 

in each ladder and thus maintain favorable passage condit~ons for upstream 

adul t migrants under reduced flows below the wye. This subject was 

studied in prototype trial runs on 5 April 1960 and it was decided that 

a reduced flow of water over 8 feet of weir crest, adjacent to each wall 

of the ladder (see photo 3-B) was hydraulically superior to a flow of 

l6 feet all on one side of the ladder. No trials using this system were 

l4 
Bonneville Dam 

conducted during 1960 to study fish passage behavior under contracted weir 

operating conditions. However, a single 8-foot wide flow in the "A" branch 

ladder sufficed to successfully pass fish to the forebay during 1941 (see 

photo 4-B) when a temporary ladder detoured fish around the area where 

powerhouse generating units 7, 8, 9 and 10 were being constructed. 

48. It has now become standard practice to diminish the flow of 

auxiliary water when large numbers of hatchery released fingerling salmon 

are migrating to the ocean. This is accomplished following receipt of notice 

of releases of fingerling salmon from the hatcheries. The reduced water 

velocity through the auxiliary water supply screens reduces fingerling 

mortality. However, as was stated earlier, the strong flow of water into 

the fish10ck at the powerhouse diverted many of the fingerling from the 

screens and helped to minimize mortality. 

49. Mention was made in the 1959 Annual Report of installations to 

prevent the entry of debris into the area behind the mechanical screens. 

This work continued into early 1960. 

50. Machinists replaced the jackshafts in the bottom parts of the 

Bradford Island mechanical screens, and also removed the sprockets for 

cleaning, painting, and welding when necessary. A broken cast iron drive 

sprocket was replaced with a new one of cast steel on one of the Bradford 

Island mechanical screens after an enforced shut-down. 

Washington Fish Ladder Repair 

51. The Washington ladder was drained in the f"all of 1959 to accomplish 

extensive repairs to this facility. The repair and overhaul of this ladder 

15 
Bonneville Dam 

continued into ~900. The exposed portion of all stee~W'Ork was sandbhsted, 

cJ.eaned, painted and made ready for renewed activity in ~900. All diffusion 

chamber vaJ.ves in the Washington hdder were inspected, and those needing 

attention were repaired in the machine shop. Debris was removed from 

behind the Washington screen pits, and from the diffusion chambers, down 

to elevation minus 20. 

52. All weirs below weir 6g in the Bonneville hdders consist of a 

vertical. wall. of concrete four feet high, topped by four 6 x 6-inch 

timbers, which raise the weir two feet higher. These timber portions are 

caJ.led weir stop logs; many of these are J.ost each year, necessitating 

rephcement. Lost stop logs were rephced in the WaShington hdder 

before its reactivation. 

53. Several. J.arge radial vaJ.ves Which control the water suppJ.y into 

the auxiliary water conduits were inspected and repafred. 

Bradford Ishnd Fishway Inspection and Overhaul 

54. Shortly after the Washington hdder was refJ.ooded, the fJ.ow of 

water down the Bradford Isam f1shway was stoplogged off, to permit 

inspection and minor repairs. A rehtiveJ.y small number of stranded adult 

steeJ.head were removed to safety. stopJ.ogs were aJ.so phced in the No. J.O 

section of the powerhouse collection system. 

55. On 14 November now down the fiB" (spillway) branch of the 

Bradford IsJ.and hdder was cJ.osed by stopJ.ogs phced at weir 53. After 

considerable difficuLty with J.eakage around the stoplogs in the entrances 

J.6 
Bonneville Dam 

to the collection bay, the water was pumped out of the system down to 

elevation minus 20. Prior to the unwatering, all the diffusion chambers 

had been flushed repeatedly which removed almost all of the silt and debris. 

56. As in the past, the vertical timber baffles in front of each of 

the diffusion gates were found to be missing; probably as a result of 

vibration. For years various expedients have been attempted, ~successfully, to hold these timbers in place, therefore it was decided to replace 

them with concrete baffles. Cast concrete baffles or piers were used to 

replace the clusters of vertical timber baffles in the diffusion chambers 

listed in the tabulation shown below: 

1960 PLACEMENT OF CONCRETE BAFFLES 

Diffusion , Baffle Dimensions in Feet I Ladder Chamber No. , Width Height Thickness 

"A" 3,4,5, I 

Branch 7 I 5 7 2 

"A" Branch 6 I 5 5 3 

"B" Branch 20,21,22,26, I I 27,28 5 7 I 2 

"B" Branch 23,24,25 5 Approx. 5' 3" 

to 6' 3" ea./ 2 

"B" Branch 29,30 7 7 I 2 , 

The concrete baffles generally are about 6 feet from the diffusion chamber 

valves. 

57. The ladder on the south side of the spillway channel rests on 

piers and only a shell of reinforced concrete separates the ladder from 

tailwater pressure. It had been known for B. number of years that a hole 

was present in the bottom of diffusion chamber No. 26, which permitted 

l7 
Bonneville Dam 

leakage into the fishway when it was pumped out. The presence of the 

break in diffusion chamber No. 25 was not discovered un:til the ladder was 

pumped out in 1960. Metal plates and cast concrete baffles were used to 

seal the defects in both chambers. 

58. Damaged diffusion chamber slide gates were removed and repaired. 

Worn surfaces were built up by welding and were finished by machining. 

Careful adjustment of the seating of these gates was made at the time of 

replacement. Painters cleaned all exposed metal parts and painted them 

with rust-resistant paint. 

59. Heretofore, there has been no way of draining the final 6 or 8 

inches of water from the diffusion chambers of the ladder or collection 

bay, but this year concrete was chiseled out underneath the diffusion gates 

in the ladder, and drain tubes were placed in such a manner that water can 

now be drained into the auxiliary water supply conduits. 

60. Many of the wooden gratiJ;l8s covering the diffusion chambers wer"! 

dislocated or broken; and it was necessary to replace 131 of them, 81 in 

the collection bay and 50 in the ladder to a point above tailwater. 

61. A total of l76 weir logs were missing below normal tat1water 

level and were replaced by units of four 6 x 6-inch timbers bolted together 

to minimize vibration and subsequent -J..oss of individual timbers. Consider-

.. 

able thought has been given to replacement of these timber weirs with 

concrete weirs to eliminate the need for frequent renewal. 

18 
Bonneville Dam. 

62. Radial gates controlling the auxiliary water supply were examined 

and., where possible, repairs were made in place. The metal skinplate on 

one gate was nearly worn through; the gate was moved to the repair shop 

for major overhaul. The hoist mechanism on one gate was rewired. 

63. The overhead trolley system, serving the south fingerling bypass 

at the Bradford Island location, was altered to per.mit its use to lower 

stoplogs into the upstream stoplog slots of the bypass. 

Counting Stations 

64. Despite many improvements in the present counting facilities at 

Bonneville these stations still appear to cause same delay in the upstream 

migration of fish. The migrants are forced to rise to a level near the 

surface where the fish counters can identify them. This seems to be 

contrary to the natural inclinations of many of the fish as same turn 

back or surge onto the board and then drift back. Fisheries personne-l 

are aware of this situation but they also recognize that there· is need for 

accurate fiSh tally for efficient management of the resource. 

65. It has been suggested that the solution to the counting problem 

might be to locate the fish counter in a submerged observation chamber 

which would allow the fish to pass at a deeper level. A chamber with 

these provisions was built by the U. S. Fisn and Wildlife Service for use 

in an experiment at the Fisheries-Engineering Research Laboratory located 

at Bonneville Dam. It was found to be practical by the fish counters and 

the fish could be readily seen as they were brought close to the glass 

19 
Bonneville Dam. 

by 8 def~ector arrangement. Two ~rger chambers are to be built (10 feet 

\ 

~ong by ~O feet high by 3 feet wide) for use in 1961 experiments. 

66. An alternate suggestion has been made to install a te~evision 

viewing device at a depth which would cause the least adverse affect to 

fish passage. The fish counters and the public would view the image of 

the fish on screens at convenient locations. The problem is complicated 

by turbidity of the water and insufficient li~~t 

67. At the Bradford Is~nd station it was found that fish would 

pass over the ccunting board more readily if it is shaded. A floating 

device to provide shade (7 feet wide by ~6 feet long and extending from 

the counting barrier into the forebay) was installed in 1960 (see photos 

5-B and 6-B). The o~y dif'f'icu~ty encountered in operating the shade 

device was in the early spring when a heavy snowfall weighted the 

structure and caused it to jam in its guides. 

68. A number of years ago a temporary experimenta~ counting board 

was installed with a translucent surface which could be illuminated from 

be~ow by built-in lights. It has been used effectively when night counting 

was performed and when the water was muddy. 

69. In ~960 a full size wooden model of a counting board, with 

space provisions for internal lights, was tested to observe the flow 

pattern of the water passing over. The upstream end was not sufficiently 

streamlined and caused up-welling flow, so the device was removed for 

alterations. 

20 
Bonneville Dam 

70. For the convenience 'of, visitors who come to see the passege of 

salmon, a place is provided where the public can view the counting board. 

In order to improve the visibility of the board to the visitors during 

high water periods, certain structural members of the Bradford Island 

counting fence were raised to a higher level in 1960. 

Liaison Functions 

71. In January, 1960, Bonneville Fisheries personnel travelled with 

Walla Walla biologists to the Rogue, the Umpqua, and the Klamath River 

systems, seeking an experimental site where tests of fingerling passage 

through turbines could be conducted. An attempt was made to locate a power 

plant with approximately 450 feet of head where the tailwater level could 

be altered between wide limits. The California-Oregon Power Company.was 

highly cooperative in loaning their biologist and eqUipment to exemine all 

the power plants in the region. No desirable site was located in the 

southern region; therefore, search was made on the Olympic Peninsula. At 

Cushman No.2 Hydro Plant, near Hoodsport on Hoods Canal, the tide alters 

the t&ilwater depth; therefore, it was decided to conduct the tests at that 

location. The Portland District also aided in the accomplishment of these 

tests, which lasted for a three-week period in late April and early May. 

72. Bonneville personnel also observed and aided the Oregon Game 

Commission in conduct of several fingerling survival tests at Oregon City 

in which a large net was used. The fyke, or funnel-type net, 120 feet 

long with the live box on the downstream end, was used to capture fingerling salmon sent through the turbines by personnel conducting the tests. 

21 
Bonneville Dam 

73. Several years ago, the Oregon Fish Commission completed a study 

for the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service to determine mortality of adult 

migrants at Bonneville dam. Recently it was decided to plan a more 

thorough e:xa.m:ination of this subject. Consequently, on 6 September 

representatives of the Oregon Fish Commission visited Bonneville to 

discuss the project with Corps of Engineers and Fish and Wildlife Service 

personnel. 

74. The Assistant District Biologist of the Walla Walla Di~trict, 

Corps of Engineers, and the Portland District Biologist, in their spare 

time have been preparing a history of the fishwheels of the Columbia River. 

Much data has been gained about for.mer operation of fishwheels on this 

stream and current operation streams in Canada and Alaska where fishwheels 

are still used to catch fish for sustenance and also for research purposes. 

Biologists of the California Department of Fish and Game, knowing of the 

interest in fishwheels here on the Columbia, and knowing of their use in 

Canada and AlaSka, requested that Bonneville personnel come to California 

to advise on the possible construction of a research wheel. This mission 

was accomplished in October 1960. A later communique from Cali:f'ornia 

indicates that they plan to proceed with construction of the fishwheel 

and hope to have it operating on the Sacramento River by the end of 1961. 

75. Oregon Fish Commission biologists with the aid of commercial 

fisher.men tagged a number of fish in the Columbia near the ocean. This 

was done in an attempt to determine the migration time between the point 

where tagged and Bonneville Dam. Oregon Fish Commission biologists came 

22 

• 
Bonneville Dam 

to Bonneville to observe the passage of fish, bearing tags, as they 

passed through the counting stations. This proved to be a tedious assignment. 

Observations on Submerged Vertical Orifice Entrance 

Gates in Powerhouse Fish Collection System 

76. When the hor~zontal submerged orifices were adopted at 

Bonneville in 1948 and 1949 consideration was given to installation of 

vertical orifices on the theory that a vertical orifice might be superior 

in that it would attract fish from a greater range of levels in the tailrace. Before 1960 no equipment was available to make tests of this theory; 

but during 1960 after construction of a vertical orifice and a second 

submerged observation chamber it became possible to make simultaneous 

timed checks at the entry ports. On 29 August 1960 and subsequent days 

observations were made at gates 64 and 65 where observers descended into 

the chambers and simultaneously began to register the number of fish 

entering the collection system through the vertical and hOl~zontal openings. 

To provide a controlled test the location of the vertical and horizontal 

orifices were alternated each day. Preliminary results indicate that more 

fish entered the collection system through the vertical slot. Almost all 

fish entering the vertical slot swam upward through the bottom half of 

the adit and then plunged downward on the inside of the collection system. 

These early studies need further elaboration. 

23 
Bonneville Dam 

U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Investigation~ and Activities 

77. In July, at the height of the blueback run, Fish and Wildlife 

Service scientists began the collection of 80 bluebacks below and also 

80 above each main stem dam. for fatigue study. The Service I s trap at the 

forebay end of the Washington ladder was used to capture bluebacks above 

Bonneville. Commercial fishermen collected the desired specimens below 

Bonneville. The entire mission was achieved successfully but the results 

of the study are not known at this time. 

78. The Fish and Wildlife Service also trapped about 500 spring -

chinook salmon by the use of the Washington trap for transfer to Wind 

River, Washington. 

79. In mid-May four adult Canada geese and their families of 6 goslings 

were carried to the upstream side of the spillway gates from whence they 

could not make their escape. Project personnel managed to capture four 

of the goslings in dip nets. They were turned over to the Fish and 

Wildlife Service who later gave them to the Portland Zo~. 

Fingerling Pressure Report 

80. The Corps of Engineers, having the required facilities at the 

Bonneville Hydraulics Laboratory far performing fingerling pressure studies, 

conducted in 1956 certain pressure tests in relation to the Mayfield Dam 

on the Cowlitz River. This work was planned and directed by a U. S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service biologist who was assisted by the Bonneville Dam 

resident biologist and personnel from the Bonneville Hydraulics Laboratory. 

The preparation of a report on these pressure studies was c~pleted late 

in 1960. 

24 
• 

Bonneville Dam 

81. By means of the equipn.ent mentioned in the preceding paragraph 

a fingerling research demonstration was conducted on 31 August for the 

special interest of two Canadian research workers. These men watched with 

keen interest as the pressure upon the fish, after a night-long accomodation period, was suddenly released. A large percentage of the fish in the 

tank. died. The Canadians are conducting an exhaustive series of similar 

experiments. 

Fishways Inspections 

82. Inspectors fram interested fish agencies and the U. S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service began making fish facility inspections in the summer of 

1958. The first summer they examined the fishway operations each week, 

but later changed to bi-weekly tours. These bi-weekly tours continued 

through 1960. 

Sea Gulls 

83. Each spring time when salmon and other young fish are migrating 

through the powerhouse to the ocean, large numbers of seagulls congregate 

below the powerhouse where they wheel and circle then dive into the water 

to pick up fish. Between fishing periods, the fowls have been wont to rest 

on the railing of the 55 deck where they befoul this area. A single strand 

of wire was placed about 4 inches above the 2-inch guard rail in such a 

manner that if the gulls wished to rest they would have to alight on the 

single wire. The remedy was effective.

Visitors 

88. Visitors who came to the project to observe fish facility 

operations included the Project Review Coordinator from the Office of the 

Secretary of Interior, various officials of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service, the Director of the Idaho Fish and Game Department, representatives from state fish and game agencies, a biologist from Ponteveda, Spain, 

a biologist who for 50 years or more has worked for the Scottish Water 

Board, a New Zealand fisheries biologist administrator and his wife, and 

the commercial fisheries management class from Oregon State College. A 

total of 615,149 visitors came to Bonneville in 1960. 

89. The head of the Zoology Department of the University of Maine, 

Orono, Maine, and his wife visited on 23 July. A number of biological 

specimens from the western region, including trout perch, and a number of 

Amphilina bipunctata (parasites from the viscera of sturgeon) were given 

to him to take back to the Parasitology Department of the University.

THE DALLES DAM 

SUMMARY 

90. In the four years of The Dalles' operation, fishway personnel 

have learned the characteristics of the fish passage facilities and are 

now able to operate them with considerable skill. Many of the problems 

usually encountered in the operation of fish facilities were eliminated 

when these facilities were designed. The fish facilities at The Dalles 

Dam are more intricate but much easier to operate than those at Bonneville; 

however, approximately four years were needed to became familiar with the 

adjustment of the many variables involved. Fish facility locations at 

The Dalles Dam are shown on general site map DDG-l-O-o/5 and photo I-D. 

91. The total number of fish of all species counted at The Dalles 

Dam during 1960 was 1,112,259, of which 370,632 were salmonids. 

92. The 1960 salmonid count at The Dalles Dam was 196,962 chinook, 

59,441 blueback, 3,000 Silvers, 35 chum, 5 humpback, and 1l;l,189 steelhead 

trout. The miscellaneous fish count total was 741, 6~ • 

93. The monthly totals of all species of fish recorded at The Dalles 

Dam are shown in table 41. Daily fish count records by months are shown 

i~ tables 42 to 57, inclusive. Peak d~s of fish migration for the 

important species are shown in table 58. 

94. Night count percentages, as determined fram the night counts 

made in 1959 are as follows: chinook adults 9~j chinook jacks eJ1,; blueback l5%J steelhead 6%; lampreys 56%J shad and all other scrapfish 29%. 

No night co~t percentages have been determined for silvers, chums, and 

humpbacks. These figures represent changes in all cases fram the percentages used in earlier years.

95. The maximum number of salmonids counted in one day (6,708) was 

on 25 June. The maximum number of miscellaneous fish (27,203) and of all 

species recorded in one day (30,180) were on 29 July; of this total, 

25,080 were lampreys.

Chinook Jacks or Gri1se 

102. Originally, the older Cascade region fishermen did not use the 

term" Jacks". They used "white salmon" to include all chinooks up to about 

7 pounds in weight. The name II jack" now has been adopted to classify small 

chinook up to 18 inches in length. The following tabulation compares the 

jack counts at Bonneville, The Dalles, McNary, and Rock Island Dams:

with the years 1957, 1958 and 1959. 

109. The following tabul.ation of the count of miscellaneous species 

of fish, minus lampreys, at several main stem dams indicates that a greater

Shad 

110. The Dalles Dam fish counters observed 81,053 shad in transit

111. On 23 June a large number of shad were observed entering the 

transportation channel via the swift flow of water issuing from the south 

spi11~ entrance. Man;y shad were also seen entering the junction pool 

from the transportation channel; none could be seen entering the junction 

pool from the east powerhouse entrance, or the powerhouse collection 

systems. These observations strengthen the conviction established in 

1957 that the south spi11~ fish entrance is an excellent one for all 

fish. 

112. Fishlock shad entry notes were made 12 July at a demonstration 

of the fishlock: with an unobstructed channel flow (no weir steps) between 

the fishlock and the junction pool, man;y shad entered the fishlock; but 

when the uppermost weir (#f30) of the fishlock approach channel was raised 

to elevation 86.5, creating 2.3 feet of rise between the fishlock holding 

pool and the fishlock approach channel, the excessive head stopped all

movement of' shad into the lock. On another test (21 July), W':l. th only 6 

inches of' head on Weir 80, numerous shad SWWD. readily over the weir f'rom 

the f'ishlock approach channel into the f'ish1ock holding pool. 

113. During the latter part of' October and in early November, 

numerous guJJ.s were observed f'eeding on organisms which were passing 

through the turbines and the spillW'8\Y". Observations f'rom a distance of' 

approximately 50 f'eet gave the Project Biologist the ~pression that same 

of' the prey were young shad. Fingerling shad are known to move downstream 

at this t~e of' year. 

114. A dead adult shad was f'ound against the upstream side of' the

117. No sturgeon were observed passing upst;reamj if any reached the 

foreb~ via the ladders, they ascended at night or during rest periods. 

At least one sturgeon was seen below the east counting station, but it was 

not observed to go over the counting board. 

118. Sturgeon set lines operated by Indians were numerous in The 

Dalles area. It is believed that large sturgeon are disappear:irlg from the 

area although some sizeable fish of this species continue to be observed 

as they lunge up out of the water.

Fish Counting Schedule for The Dalles Dam - 1960 

120. 

1 January - 4- April 

5 April - 29 October 

No counting was performed. 

Full time counting; 16 hours per d~ at each of 

the two counting stations, totaling 32 hours of' 

counting. The counters performed no counting 

during the lO-minute rest period each hour. A 

rest period factor of 1.2 was applied to the 

counts to compensate for the passage of fish 

during these times. The counting gates were 

never closed, and another factor was applied to 
The Dalles Datil 

compensate ror rish passage during the night 

periods. 

30 October - 26 November Two counters on duty 8 hours each. Eight hours 

of simultaneous rish counting, totaling 16 hours 

or counting per day. 

27 November - 31 December No counting perror.med. Gates remained open and 

fish were rree to pass upstream at all times. 

FISH FACILITIES OVERHAUL, ACTIVITIES AND OBSERVATIONS 

North Shore Ladder 

121. This ladder was d,ra.ined for inspection, cleaning and minor 

repairs 29 January 1959. Later in the year (December) it was again drained 

and also pumped out ror extensive repairs. Broken and displaced diffusion 

gratings were replaced. A large rock, in ra.lling, had broken a concrete 

beam in a ladder diffusion chamber; the structural member was replaced 

With a steel beam. Numerous large and small rocks which bad rallen or been 

carried by the water into the dirfusion chambers and auxiliary water supply 

systems, were removed. Silt and organic debris was also cleaned from the 

racili ty • The machinists overhauled all or the auxiliary water supply 

slide gates, some extensively, berore replacement and readjustment. Repairs 

to the valve seats were made by use of stainless steel insert strips. 

See photo 2-D. The portable electric power unit used to operate these 

gates is shown in photo 3-D. Valve 13, the upper.most of the auxiliary 

water valves, was removed per.manentlyJ a steel plate was affixed to the 

37 
The Dalles Dam 

concrete to cover the opening. A new counting board was installed in the 

north ladder 12 Januar,y. The collection bay was ref100ded 12 Februar,y. 

122. A cable turnbuckle broke on 15 May and one of' the north shore 

entrance weirs dropped to the bottom. It was fished out and reinstalled 

20 May. 

123. FollOwing the closure of the spillway gates, much debris was 

carried against the upstream side of the North Shore ladder counting fence. 

To facilitate disposal of this detritus, two apertures, through which the 

buoyant material can be thrown, were made in the upper portion of the 

counting fence. Sliding gates were provided to close the openings. 

Flushing Diffusion Chambers 

124. All diffusion chambers which were not normally used were flushed 

periodically to remove silt. 

Counting Stations 

125. The North Shore counting station is so situated in relation to 

the position of the sun in its daily passage that the light from the latter 

caused many reflections and so much glare in the vicinity of the station 

that it was difficult for the fish counters to see the fish even with the 

bydroscope and polaroid glasses. In July of 1960 a temporar,y tarpaulin 

cover was erected over the counting area; this device provided the required 

shade. 

126. The subject of fish delay below counting fences was treated 

more thoroughly in the Bonneville portion of this report. 
The Dalles Dam 

l2l. Approxima.tely 50 chinook salmon were observed for two days 

below the north shore counting station fence between 10 and 12 October. 

It is customar,y to assume that all fish that enter a fish ladder go on 

,} upstreamJ however, some fish held in the Bonneville Fisheries Engineering 

Research Laborator.y for a time do not move on upstream when given the 

opportunity. The immediate and delayed effects of halting or delaying the 

progress of fish are not known at the present time. 

128. A violent gust of wind broke the north shore bydroscope. This 

hydroscope was broken again and also the one at the other counting station 

when fish leaped onto them. An occasional lamprey marred the top surfaces 

of the scopesJ but in spite of these mishaps, the devices continued to 

serve a usefUl function by enabling the fishcounters to see the fish more 

clearly. 

Fishlock 

129. A reducing orifice had been placed earlier in the 42 inch 

filling line, but the instrumentation laborator,y h~ not completed the 

required testing of the results of the alterations. The fishlock tests 

were conducted 14 - 24 March with elaborate equipment, including strain 

gauges and oscillograph. The tests proved that the lock was ready for 

use. It was operated maDy times during the year, including demonstrations 

conducted on 12 July and 15 September for the benefit of representatives 

from interested ~tate and Federal fish agencies. 

39 
The DaJ.les Dam 

Fishway Entrances 

130. At times in 1960 the entire flow of the river passed through 

the powerhouse 'With no f10w through the spillwa,y. When all spillwa,y gates 

were on seal, the attraction flows from the fish entrances look very good. 

The current from the north fishwa,y entrance extends a long wa,y down stream 

but not quite far enough to reach the deep channel below the spillwa,y. The 

attraction flow from the south spillwa,y fish entrance penetrates downstream 

to the deep channe1. / There is a good flow cOming around. the point below 

the south entrance and the flow from the fishway runs right into it. The 

fish attraction conditions are much better at the south end of the spillwa,y 

than at the north end. 

131. Constant wave action against the side fish entrance stoplogs 

of the collection bays at the north and south ends of the spillwa,y dam 

tended to damage the logs and the stoplog slots. A diver, using special 

interlocking brass wedges, tightened the stoplogs in the slots and stopped 

the incessant battering. 

Powerhouse Collection System 

132. The powerhouse collection syst~ has not been drained for 

repairs since 5 January 1959. 

133. Occasionally it was necessary to stop one of the two fishwater 

turbine units for repairs whi1e fish were migrating. When this was done, 

12 of the 25 submerged orifice entry ports of the powerhouse collection 

system were closed to maintain proper head. Later in the fall, both 

fishwater units were stopped for repairs for several days. At that time, 

40 
The Dalles Dam. 

the flow down the ladder created some attraction at the various entrances. 

This small flow was usually concentrated through a single entrance. 

Powerhouse Load Rejections 

134. Two powerhouse load rejections, 16 and 26 May, caused surges of 

water down the fish ladders. When a load rejection occurs, the turbine 

wicket gates are automatically closed in a period of from 5 of 12 seconds 

causing a surge from the sudden stoppage of inflow into the turbine 

intakes. On 16 May only 4 units (numbers 9, 10, 11 and 12) dropped load, 

but the resultant surge sent waves of water 3 feet and 2 feet high 

respectively, through the east and north counting stations. The oscillations 

continued for 25 minutes before the forebay returned to normal, thus 

sending frequent pulses of water down the ladders. 

135. A complete load rejection was experienced on the second date; 

at this time the forebay level rose about 3.5 feet above normal to 163.5 

feet at the powerhouse and to 162.5 feet at the navigation lock and north 

fishway. The oscillations continued for approximately one and one-half 

hours. 

Main Unit Activation 

136. A total of 14 main generating units were activated by the end 

of 1960. No more power units will be installed until such time as upstream

Mortali ty Patrol 

137 • Only one salmon mortality boat patrol was made to Crate 1 s 

Point (30 September) j four dead salmon were found. 

U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Investigations and Activities 

138. Fingerling salmon research was conducted at The Dalles Dam in 

1960 by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service to determine the vertical 

distribution of fingerling as they travelled toward and through the turbine 

intakes. Two types of net frames were used. The trash rack fingerling 

nets were supported by a large framework made of pipes. See photo 4-D. 

The intake net frame was made of' angle iron and carried 6 nets to sample 

f'ish at all degrees of submergence from the top to the bottom of the 

intake. See photo 5-D. Almost all of' the fingerling study was accomplished 

with the intake tube arI"a\Y'. The work ceased 20 June. The results of the 

work have not been published. 

42 
The Dalles Dam 

139. The Service was also engaged in a Columbia .River migration 

fatigue study of adult bluebacks and in this connection captured 80 blueback below and 80 above the dam. The knowledge and experience of an 

octogenarian fisherman of The Dalles region made the operation relatively 

simple. This fisherman knows the habits of Nerka and how to catch them. 

Gillnets were used to catch 80 bluebacks near Crate's POint, about 5-1/2 

miles downstream from The Dalles Dam. The other 80 bluebahks were caught 

in the foreb~ adjacent to the north ladder exit. 

Miscellaneous Observations 

140. ~ one or two families of Indians dipnetted from the Oregon 

shore above The Dalles bridge throughout the spring run, and only four were 

observed during the fall run. However, set nets and sturgeon lines were 

used across the deep holes adjacent to former dipnetting sites. Apparently 

the enforcement of fishing regulations caused removal of the nets on 

26 October. 

141. A pelican landed in the north parking lot 7 October. Three 

swans fed and rested in the forebay close above the dam 5 and 6 May and 

numerous coots spashed about for several weeks. Flocks of wild geese and 

ducks found refuge and food in shallow areas near the mouth of the 

Deschutes River. 

142. In April, May, October and November hundreds of gulls were 

observed to be feeding on small fish or other animal life passing downstream 

through the dam. Between f'ishing forays, they rested on the rock reef' 

below the spillway. 
The Dalles Dam. 

1.43. Starlings again invaded The Dalles Dam. to roost in the superstructure of the powerhouse and crane. Strong measures were taken to 

discourage these exotics. 

1.44. An adul. t beaver was seen wandering across the spi1.l.~ deck on 

25 March. A dead one was foUIJd on the upstream side of the north 'fish 

counting station fence on 5 May. 

Fishway Operation and Maintenance Costs 

1.45. The total. cost in 1.960 of fishW8¥ operation and maintenance, 

inc1.uding fish counting, was $1.06,350.10, distributed as follows: 

Routine operation $ 55,443.85 

Fish counting 1.6,024.52 

Maintenance 34,881..73 

Total $106,350.1.0 

Weather and River F1.ow Data 

1.46. In January and early March much energy was expended in shove1.-

ing snow and in keeping staiTW8¥s and walkW8¥S free of ice. Total. preCipitation for the year was 1.4.81. inches. Maximum water temperature was 

71. degrees F. on II August. The 1.owest water temperature was 33 degrees F. 

on 22 and 23 January. The lowest river water temperature reading at McNar,y 

Dam did not fall below 36 degrees F. Daily records of water and air 

temperatures and weather conditions are shown in salmonid fish count tab1.es 

beginning with table 42. Daily turbidity readings, river flow and water 

temperatures are plotted on plate 27. 
The Dalles Dam 

Visitors 

147. Project fish facility operations were observed on various 

occasions by biologists and engineers from fisher,y agencies of the States 

of Oregon and Washington; the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Canada; 

the fisheries management class from Oregon State University; the biology 

class of The Dalles High School; and others. The general public took 

special interest in watchIng the passage of fish in the fish~s. Due to 

construction activities at the project, it was closed to visitors during 

much of the tourist season and only about 169,700 persons, mostly tourists, 

visited the project during 1960. 
McNARY DAM 

SUMMARY 

148. A total of 330,614 salmon and steelhead trout migrated over 

McNary Dam during the calendar year of 1960, the third lowest annual 

tabulation: since counting began in 1954. The total number of chinook 

and silver salmon and steelhead trout was above the seven year average; 

however, the blueback salmon count was the lowest for the seven year 

period of record. 

149. The total passage of all species of fish at McNary Dam during 

1960 was 656,434. This total was comprised of 176,767 chinook, 55,372 

blueback, 1,580 Silvers, 96,895 steelhead and 325,820 other miscellaneous 

fish. The miscellaneous fish total included 11 species with suckers again 

the most predominant. The miscellaneous fish count continued the decline 

experienced in recent years, with the 1960 total 44 percent below the 

seven year average. 

150. The annual totals of all fish passing McNary Dam during the 

period 1954-1960 are shown in table 70. Monthly totals for 1960 appear in 

table 71. Daily totals by species are compiled by months in tables 72 

through 90. Peak d~s of fish migration by species for the seven year 

period are shown in table 91-

151. The maximum daily salmonid count occurred on 1 July with a total 

of 6,884 passing the counting board. Miscellaneous fish reached a maximum 

daily count of 5,882 on 27 September. The maximum daily count of all 

species combined was 9,578, which occurred on 1 July. Monthly counts of 

salmon and steelhead trout for the years 1954-1960 are shown in tables 92

McNary Dam 

through 95, and miscellaneous species counted over the same period are 

shown in table 96. The number and percent of salmonids counted over each 

fish ladder are shown in tables 97 through 101; and the yearly percentages 

of salmonids counted over each fish ladder for the years 1954-1960 appear 

in table 102. 

152. The Oregon shore pump and gravity attraction water systems, which 

were unwatered on 2 November 1959, were returned to operation on 20 January 

1960. The Washington shore fish ladder was in full operation during this 

period. 

153. Various experimental and research studies were performed during 

the year at McNary Dam by Corps of Engineers personnel and by representatives of fishery agencies engaged in contracts under the Corps of Engineers 

Fishery Research Program. 

154. Daily counts of the four principal salmonid species are plotted 

for comparison with those of Bonneville and The Dalles Dams on plates 1 

through 4. Plates 9 through 12 show the migration periods of salmonid runs 

at McNary Dam for the years 1954-1960. Daily river discharges, water 

temperatures and turbidity readings appear on plate 28.

Dam are shown in relation to other features on General Site Plan MD-05-3l/2. 

String Chinook Salmon 

1 March - 15 June) 

156. Fish counting was initiated on 1 April. A total of 57,265 spring 

chinook were counted. This total is 6 percent more than the seven year 
McNary Dam 

average of' 53,877. The peak of' the spring run occurred on 7 May when 5,124 

chinook were counted. -Of the total chinook run, 32.40 percent was spring 

run chinook. See tables 70, 71 and 92 and plates 1 and 9. 

Summer Run Chinook Salmon 

(16 June - 31 August) 

157. The total summer chinook run of' 80,856 was 3.81 percent below 

the seven year average of 84,062. The peak of the summer run occurred on 

23 June with a count of 4,752. The summer run accounted for 45.74 percent 

of' the total chinook run. See tables 70, 71 and 92 and plates 1 and 9. 

Fall Chinook Salmon 

158. A total of 38,646 fall chinook were counted in 1960. This total 

is 7.66 percent greater than the seven year average of 35,897. The peak 

daily count of 2,966 occurred on 10 September. The fall run amounted to 

21.86 percent of' the total chinook passage. See tables 70, 71 and 92 and 

plates 1 and 9. 

Chinook Jacks or Grilse 

159. These small male chinook salmon are tallied separately but are 

included in all of the chinook counts. A standard maximum length of 18 

inches has been used to designate chinook jacks except in 1955 and 1956 

when a maximum length of 24 inches was used at the request of the Oregon 

Fish Commission. Twelve and seven-tenths percent of the 1960 chinook run 

I 

was comprised of jacks. Table 98 shows the number and percent of chinook 

jack salmon counted over each fish ladder.

McNary Dam 

Blueback Salmon 

, 

160. A total of 55,372 blueback salmon were counted in 1960, the 

lowest yearly total since counting began in 1954. This total was 54.49 

percent of the seven year average of 101,613 and 31.87 percent of the peak 

year count of 173,758 tabulated in 1955. The number and percent of blueback 

salmon counted over each fish ladder are shown in table 99. Other pertinent 

data is presented in tables 70, 91 and 93 and plates 2 and 10. 

Si1ver·Salmon 

161. The total count of silver salmon for 1960 was 1,580. The 1960 

count was 10.26 percent higher than the seven year average of 1,433. The 

peak daily count of 116 occurred on 10 and 17 September. See tables 70, 

91 and 94 and plates 3 and 11. 

Chum Salmon 

162. No chum salmon were counted in 1960. 

Steelhead Trout 

163. Steelhead trout totaled 96,895 in 1960. This number 'Was 12.26 

percent higher than the seven year average. The peak daily count of 3,720 

occurred on 14 September. See tables 70, 71, 91, 95 and 101 and plates 

4 and 12. 

Maximum Abundance and Yearly Percentage of 

Salmonids Counted Over Each Fish Ladder 

164. The maximum daily count of all species combined occurred on 

1 July with a total of 9,578. This number was comprised of 3,007 chinook, 
McNary Dam 

3,637 blueback, 240 steelhead and 2,694 miscellaneous fish. The peak daily 

salmonid count of 6,884 also occurred on 1 July, and a peak daily count of 

5,882 miscellaneous fish was tabulated on 27 September. See tables 81, 82 

and 86. 

165. The yearly percentage use of fish ladders by all salmonid species 

for the years 1954-1960 is--shown on table 102. 

Miscellaneous Species 

166. Shad - A total of 1,147 shad were counted during 1960. The 

previous high yearly count was 636 in 1957. See tables 71 and 96. 

167. Other miscellaneous species - The 1960 count of fish other than 

salmonids was 325,820, the lowest since fish counting began at McNary Dam. 

This count is 56.13 percent of the seven year average of 580,424. The 

yearly decline in the number of miscellaneous fish counted over the fish 

ladders which began in 1955 continued during 1960. The miscellaneous fish 

count was 49.63 percent of the total fish count as compared to 49.51 percent of the total count for 1959. These are the only two years in which 

the salmonid fish count exceeded the miscellaneous fish count at McNary 

Dam. Suckers were again the most numerous, comprising 62.89 percent of 

the miscellaneous fish count. Shad increased from a previous high of 0.11 

percent in 1957 to 0.35 percent in 1960. 

Activities and Observations 

Washington Fish Lock 

168. The Washington Fish Lock was not operated during 1960. 

50 
McNary Dam 

Pressure Fish Lock 

169. Operation of the pressure fish lock was not performed in 1960. 

Fish Count~ Schedule 

170. 1 Janu.a:r.z - 3J- March. - no counting performed. Ladders open to 

free fish passage at all times. 

1 A12ril - J.l: October - sample counting. Counting performed in 

four hour periods alternating between counting stations, 16 hours daily. 

Counting station gates remain open at all times. 

1 November - ~l December - no counting performed. Ladders open 

to free fish passage at all times. 

Fish Facilities Re12airs and Overhaul 

171. The Oregon shore pump and gravity attraction water system which 

was unwatered for scheduled maintenance on 2 November 1959 was returned to 

operation on 20 January 1960. 

172. The conversion from hoist operated weirs to floating weirs in 

the powerhouse collection channel was completed on 8 February. A total of 

30 weirs was converted to the floating orifice type. The remaining 14 

hoist operated weirs remained in service for an interim test period until 

7 June when they were raised to an inoperative position. This placed the 

powerhouse collection channel in its permanent future operating comi tion 

of 2 floating weirs per generating unit and 1 for each station service unit 

for a total of 30 floating weirs. 

173. Automatic control of certain features in the Oregon shore collection system.; namely, the north non-overflow weirs, powerhouse fish collection 
McNary Dam 

channel weirs, south fish entrance weirs and all wing gates, was placed in 

operation during the latter part of October. This facility performed 

satisfactorily for the remainder of the year, maintaining proper w~ter 

levels and flows throughout the entire system. 

Special Fishe;y Investigations 

l74. Light attraction of downstream migrant salmonids - A study, 

begun in the spring of 1958 at McNary Dam by the School of Fishe~ies, 

UniverSity of Washington, under auspices of the Corps of Engineers Fishery 

Research Program, was continued during the spring of 1960. This study, to 

determine the feasibility of using lights to attract or repel downstream 

migrant salmonids, was conducted at the fingerling bypasses of the Oregon 

fish ladder and at the ice and trush sluice~ along the upstream face of 

the powerhouse. See photo l-M. 

l75. Energy expenditure tests on blueback salmon - A group of 80 

blueback salmon was taken at McNary Dam by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries 

to be used in energy expenditure studies of blueback salmon through their 

migration route. McNary Dam was one of several test sites chosenfor the 

tests. 

l76. Supplementa;r spawning channel - Operation of the supplementary 

spawning channel below McNary Dam was continued during the year, with the 

1959-l960 season being the most productive to date. This facility, built 

in 1957, is operated by the Washington Department of Fisheries under contract with the Corps of Engineers. Maintenance of and revisions to the 

52 
McNary Dam 

channel were made by Corps of Engineers personnel during August on 

recommendation of the WaShington Department of Fisheries to further 

increase the efficiency of the channel. See photo 2-M. 

FiBh~ DEeration and Maintenance Costs 

177. The total cost of fish~ operation and maintenance in 1960 was 

$180,506.06. 

178. In addition to the above costs, a total of 26,104,940 kilowatt 

hours of electricity was used by fishway pumps in supplying attraction 

water to the south shore facilities. 

Weather and River Flow Data 

179. The daily records of barometer readings, precipitation data, 

river discharges and turbidi~ readings are recorded on the monthly 

salmonid fish count tables. The daily turbidity readings, river flow and 

water temperatures are plotted for the year on plate 28. 

Visitors 

180. Biologists of several State and Federal fishery organizations 

visited the dam at frequent intervals to inspect the f1sh~ operations. 

181. A total of 58,500 visitors were recorded at McNary Dam during 

the year 1960.
