FOREWORD 

This combined annual report on the passage of fish over Bonneville, 

The Dalles and McNa~ Dams provides information on the passage of fish, 

operation of fish facilities and other activities in connection with the 

migration of fish carried on during the year at each of these dams by 

the Corps of Engineers. 

The fish facilities at Bonneville Dam have been in operation for 

20 yaal's and at McNary Dam for four years. The fish facilities at The 

Dalles Dam were activated when the pool was raised early in March 1957. 

Fish counting was initiated on March 1 at Bonneville Dam and at The Dalles 

and McNa~ Dams on March 17. 

Summaries or fish counts by species are included herein for each 

calendar year of operation. New material in tables and graphs is presented in similar fom as in previous reports for continuity of comparable data. Investigations and research performed during the year at 

each dam are described briefly. 

To illustrate the various features of the work and activities in detail, supporting information is provided in plates and photographs to clariry data on the physical features and operational procedures at each dam. 

This report is distributed to biologists, fishery agencies, universi ties, libraries and others interested in these fisheries J wi thin the 

limits of copies printed and requests received. The use of abstracts or 

data from this report are permissible provided credit for the source is 

given to the Corps of Engineers.

ANNUAL ~PORT ON THE PASSAGE OF FISH 

BONNEVILLE, '!HE DALLES AND McNARY DAMS 

CALENDAR YEAR 19,7 

BONNEVILLE DAM 

~ Summa!l 

1. The total count of all species of fish was 81,,286 at Bonneville Dam in 19,7, which was slightly higner than the 19,6 count 

(814,801). The blueback total (82,915) was the lowest since 1950. 

2. The salmonid total of 6)0,640 exceeded the 1956 count and 

the 2O-year average. The total of 184,646 of miscellaneous species 

is the lowest in the 20 years of record. 

3. The salmonid total comprised 403,286 chinook, 82,915 blueback, 4,675 silver, 569 chum, 12 humpback, and 139,183 steelhead trout. 

4. The spring run count of 136,440 chinook exceeded the previous spring run. The 20-year average is 83,795. The summer run of 

144,311 chinook also exceeded the previous summer run and was far 

above the 20-year average of 58,093. The fall run of 122,,35 chinook was slightly less than the previous fall run, but considerably 

less than the 20-year average of 213,888. See table 22. 

,. Yearly total counts of all fish which ascended Bonneville 

Dam during the period 1938-1957, inclusive, appear in table 1. Monthly 

totals for 1957 are listed in table 2. Daily recordb, by months, are 

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

by species for the period 1938-1957, inclusive, are shown in table 21. 
b. In 1957 the maximum number of' saimonids counted in one day 

(13,222) was counted on April .30, and the maximum number of miscellaneout species (7,714) was counted on June 23. The maximum number of all 

species counted in one day (19,911) was counted on June 18. 

7. Monthly counts of saiman and steelhead trout for the period 

1938-1957, inclus1ve, are shown in tables 22 to 26, inclusive, and miscellaneous species counted over the same period are shown in table 27. 

8. Sixteen inches of snow fell in Januar,y and from Ih to 18 inches 

in February. Snow and ice were troublesome on the project. Cloudy and 

cool weather in the spring was followed b.1 dr.r weather in the summer. 

A total of 7h.7h inches of' precipitation was recorded during the year. 

Minimum and maximum temperatures were 20 F., recorded in January, and 

900 F. in September. 

9. Fish counting was begun on March 1. Ibring mast of the 1957 

counting period, the gates at the counting stations were left open continuously day and night. Sample counting was conducted by alternating at 

four-hour intervals between the Bradford Island and Washington shore 

counting stations in the periods March 31 through August 14 and October 20 

through November 30. Several sample counts were conducted at night but 

were not sufficiently extensive for the determination of accurate n1ght 

migration percentages. However, since this was the only data available, 

it was used to compute the night counts. Also, certain fisheries exper1mentation was conducted during the counting periods. Therefore, the 

1957 fish counts do not re1~ect the same degree of accuracy as in earlier years. Counting was discont1nued at the end of' the day on November 30. 

2 

.. 
.. ~ ...... 

As in previous years when fish counting was discontinued for annual winter maintenance of fish facil1ties, at least one'complete fishway system 

was continually accessible for the unimpaired passage of upstream migrants. 

10. Approximately 500 spring chinook were trapped by the U. S. Fish 

and Wildlife ~ervice from the Washington fish ladder and were transported 

to the holding ponds at the Tyee Hatchery, Carson, Washington, for artificial propagation. 

11. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service continued fisheries experiments in the research laboratory adjacent to the Washington shore fish 

ladder. 

12. A research report was completed in October under the Fisheries 

Engineering Research Program titled, ffEffect on ~tructures at Main Columbia River and Certain Other Dams on Downstream Migration of Fingerling 

Salmon." 

13. -On plates 1 to 4, inclusive, the daily fish counts of the four 

principal salmonid species tallied at Bonneville, Tbe Dalles, and McNary 

Dams in 1957 are shown graphically. 

14. The location of fish facilities and appurtenant features in 

relation to other features at Bonneville Dam are shown on photo l-B and 

on General Site Map CL-144-54.

the total of the 19;6 spring run. See table 22 and plate 1. A total 

of 13,222 ,spring chinook were -counted on April )0, the maximum number 

counted in one da7 in 19;7. Daily peaks of abundance in comparison 

wi th peaks ot other years are shown in table 21-

is 213,888. The total of 122,;3; fall run chinook for 19;7 is the 

4 
, ~. :..... :"" 

fourth lowest count since fish counting was initiated in 1938. On 

September 5, the peak day of the fall run, 8,834 chinook were counted. 

See tables 21, 22, 28, and 29. Plate 15 illustrates the descending 

trend of fall chinook counts. 

19. Table 29 shows the number and percent of the totals of the 

spring, summer, and fall runs for the period 1938-1957, inclusive. 

The dates selected as beginning and ending of the respective runs 

are somewhat arbitrar,y, but they have been in use for a number of 

years and racial laps are recognized for fish arriving before or after these dates. 

Chinook Jacks or Grilse 

20. At Bonneville Dam small male chinook salmon, approximately 

16 to 18 inches in length, are tallied as jack salmon or grilse. Of 

the total chinook run for 1957, 6.33 percent were jacks. The 1957 

total of 25,553 jack salmon is less than the 20-year average of 

39,977. See tables 30 and 31. 

Blueback Salmon 

21. The blueback count of 82,915 for 1957 was less than the 20-

year average of 109,291. The run reached its peak on June 24 when 

5,288 blueback were counted. Data on blueback counts are contained 

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

22. It will be noted that fewer blueback were tallied at BonneVille Dam than at The Dalles Dam, but the total salmonid count was 

lower at '!'be Dalles Dam. See tables 1 and 41. It is believed that 

the sample counts at Bonneville Dam partially explain the discrepancy 

5 
between the blueback and silver counts at Bonneville and the two dams 

above Bonneville Dam. 

Silver Salmon 

23. A total ot 4,67.5 silvers vere counted at Bonneville Dam in 

1957. '!be 2O-year average 1s 7,711. As with blueback, more silvers 

vere counted at '!be Dalles Dam than at Bonneville Dam. Plate 18 shows 

the decline in counts of silver salmon runs at Bonneville Dam. Additional data on silver salmon are shown in tables 21, 24, and 33, and 

plates 3 and 7. 

Chum Salmon 

24. At the end of the counting period, N'o'V'ember 30, a sub-average 

number of chum salmon had ascended to the Bonneville Dam foreba,' but 

this was about the middle of the migration period. The 1957 total 

count of chum salmon was 569, the 20-year average, 1,;08. Tables 1, 

21, 25, and 34 show comparative data pertaining to this species_ 

Humpbaok Salmon 

25. Twelve bumpback salmon were tallied at Bonneville Dam in 

1957. See tables 1, 2, and 1.5. Four humpback were tabulated upstreall 

at The Dalles Dam. 

Steelhead Trout 

26. A total of 139,183 steelbead trout were tallied at Bonneville Dam. This total is above the 1956 count but below the 2O-year 

average of 145,906. See tables 1, 26, 3;, and 36. Plate 19 shows 

an increase in the trends of spring and summer steelhead trout, plate 20

shows the downward trend of the fall runs and plate 21 shows the upward trend of the total counts of steelhead runs. 

MaXimum Abundance and Yearly Percentages of Salmonids 

Counted Over Each Fish Ladder 

27. On June 18 the maximum number of fish of all species counted 

in one day in 1957 was 19,911. See tables 9 and 10. Of this total, 

6,279 salmonids and 4,385 miscellaneous fish, or 53.56 percent, ascended the Bradford Island ladder; and 6,602 salmonids and 2,6h5 miscellaneous fish, or h6.44 percent, ascended the Washington shore ladder. The comparative percentage usage of the fish ladders by salmonid 

species for the period 1938-1957 are shown on table 37. 

Population Trends of Salmonid Species at Bonneville Dam 

28. The 2O-year trends of major species of fish tallied at Bonneville Dam are shown on plates 13 to 22, inclusive. The method of 

least squares has been used in preparing trend data. These analyses 

mayor may not be indicative of the total abundance of these species 

in the Columbia River. 

29. Spring and sUIIDIler rans of chinook and steelhead trout, as 

well as blueback runs, show an upward trend. A downward trend is 

noted in the fall chinook and silver salmon and fall steelhead runs. 

The total chinook counts and also the total salmonid counts including 

steelhead indicate continuing upward trends at Bonneville. 

Miscellaneous Species 

~ 

)0. A total of 13,159 shad ascended the ladders in 1957, the 

highest number since 1953. '!be 2O-year aYe rage is 16,177. See 

7 
tables 2 and 27. Over 5,000 shad were counted at The Dalles De and 

about 600 reached McNary Dam. The declining population trend of shad 

at Bonneville Dam is shown on plate 23. Add1tiona! data on shad at 

Bonneville Dam are shown 1n tables 38, 39, and 40. 

Smelt 

31. A run ot smelt entered Sandy River (Whicb flows into Colobia River approximately 25 miles downstream trom Bonneville Dam) on 

March 25, but none reached Bonneville Dam in 1957. 

Lamprey 

32. A total of 53,031 lampreys were counted crossing the counting boards at Bonneville Dam enroute upstream. Tbe 2O-;year average 

is 79,532. The numbers ot lampreys Which pass through the counting 

barriers at Bomeville Dam unobserved are not known. An upward trend 

is 'noted in lampreya counted since 1~SO. See tables 2 and 27. 

Sturgeon 

33. No sturgeon vere observed by' the fish counters at Bonneville 

Dam in 1957. '!'be reason may have been due to the fact that during 

part ot the counting season tbe counting gates remained open at all 

times. One fisb counter had observed sturgeon in the past crossing 

the counting boards only in the evening or early morning. 

Other Miscellaneous BRecies 

34. A total ot 184,646 lRiscellaneous fish of 10 speCies, including both food and scrap fisb, ascended the ladders at Bonneville Dam. 

This is the lowest count since fish counting vas initiated at Bomeville Dam in 193H, and below the 2O-year average of 314,340. See 

8 
tables 1, 2, and 27. Data on the downward trend of squawfish tallied 

at Bonneville D8JIl are sbown on plate 24. The trend studies of miscellaneous species, except shad and lampreys, are shown on plate 2S ¥bieh 

indicates a decline in abundance since 1950. 

ActiVities and Observationa 

F.1.sh Locka 

3S. The fish locks were operated during the periods of overhaul 

of the fisb ladders. The powerhouse fish lock was completely reconditioned. 

Powerhouse and Bradford Island Aux1l1a~Water Screens 

36. Increased quantities of debris created greater problems and 

considerable difficultles, particularly at the stationary auxillary 

water intake screens. There were periods during the spring ot 19S7 

when frequent cleaning of the screens necessitated tbrottllng the auxiliar" vater supply 80 that tbe powerhouse collection system bead 

dropped from 1. 0 teet to 0.1 and 0.2 feet. 

Fish-Counting Scbedule - 19$7 

37. Jan 1 - Feb 28 - No connting performed. Fish Were free to 

pass upstream through the open gates at 

the counting stations. 

Mar 1 - Mar)) - Two counters on duty for eight hours; one 

at eacb station. 

Mar 31 - Aug 14 - Initiated sample counting. One counter on 

duty at a time altemating between the two 

counting stations at four-hour intervals, 

9 
wi th lS-minute rest periods per hour. 

Counting gates remained open continuously. 

'actors applied to sample counts tor determining total count data. 

Aug 15 - Oct 20 - Full-time counting was reeumed. Counting 

gatas remained open at night but were 

closed during 10-minute per hour rest periods each day. On17 a night tactor was 

applied to the counts. 

Oct 21 - NOT 11 - Sample counting was resumed. Counting 

gates remained open at..all times. 

Rov 18 - Nov}) - Washington ladder drained for repairs. 

Counting for eight hours each day at the 

Bradford Island station. Counting gates 

remained open at all tilles. Washington 

fish lock was operated periodically. 

Dec 1 - Dac 31 - Fish were free to pass upstream through 

the open counting gates at Bradford Island 

ladder. On December 2 a copious now of 

water was introduced into the ttppeJ'lllost 

diffUsion chamber of the Washington ladder 

to relieve numerous steelhead found in the 

ladder •. This ladder was restored to service on December 6. Thereafter, fish Were 

free to pass to the forebay through the 

open counting gates at all times. 

10 
Fish Facilitz Repairs and Overhaul 

38. Repairs which had been started in the fall of 19$6 were continued at tb.e south end of the powerhouse in 1957. The following work 

was accomplished in this section during the period January 1 and 

Februar;y 21. 

a. The powerhouse fish lock and water supply intake facility were drained. All movable components, such as radial gates and 

fish lock brail, were removed. 

b. All steel was cleaned and repainted. New rubber seals 

were installed on the radial gates. 

c. An improved greasing system was installed to serve all 

pitmans and gibs. 

d. All damaged and worn diffusion gratings were replaced 

in the fish lock collection ~ • 

. 39. Subsequently, the powerhouse fish lock bra1l was cleaned and 

painted and almost completely reconstructed b.1 replacement of all wood 

and wire sections, and by placement of a redeSigned" improved closure 

between the downstream lip of the bra!l and the flipper barrier. The 

fish lock brail was replaced in the fish lock shaft on August 15. 

qu. On January 2 the Washington ladder was· drained to t&ilwater. 

ApprOximately 200 salmonida found therein were moved to the safety or 

an awd.11ary water dit:fusion pool. 'lbe upper regulating gate components were renovated and overhauled ev:en though ice hampered the work. 

Water was released in the ladder during this time in an attempt to melt 

the ice. Upon completion or this work on February 8, the ladder was 

rewatered. 

11 
.u. On J anuar;y 23 the Washington screen pit was drained to tailwater for-inspection and painting. 

42. Early in the year tne hoist mechanism of the U. S. Fish and 

Wildlife ~ervice spring chinook trap failed and was repaired. On June 24 

the drive gears of this device failed. Two men who were in the breil 

at the time were carried undervater, but fortunately were rescued. 

43. Because of ice conditions in Januar;y, it was impossible to 

operate the Bradford Island traveling screens for a time during the 

month. The ice threatened to dam the poverhouse branch ladder at the 

weir 41 counting station. The problem was alleviated by moving the ice 

from the upstream side of the counting fence through the three fish 

counting openings. The weir 41 counting station and all appurtenances 

were removed from the ladder on Februar;y 26 and 21. This station was 

constructed in 19,2 and had been used during the powerhouse collection 

system studies, but the counting fence was inimical to the normal upstream movement of fish in that ladder. 

44. On Januar;y 31 the ice began to thaw rapidly in the fishways 

and was a hazard to the fish fac~lities as late as Februar;y 6. 

4,. On February 11 the Bradford Island ladder was drained to 

tailwater. Fish which were found in the ladder were moved to safety. 

Also, on this date the Bradford rs~and mechanical screen pit was 

drained for inspection. 

46. Silt was removed with a clent shell dredge from the forebay 

area beyond the Bradford Island counting station on February 18 and 19. 

Approximate17 trom 14 to 18 inches of snow fell on February 22 and 23. 

12 
47. The Bradford Island ladder was rewatered on Februar,y 28. 

48. Necessar,y repairs were made to the cei11ng of the auxil1ar,r 

water conduit in the "A" branch of the Bradford Island ladder. Broken 

planks in the powerhouse collection system bulkhead were re~laced. 

49. A louvered fish-counting board was tested but rejected bacause it was found that a floating hydroscope was necessar,r for use 

wi th this deVice to obViate ripples caused by the louvers. A submar:1nelighted cl)unting board was later tested and accepted. 

,;0. Spillway gates 1 and 18 were opened four inches on March 22 

to provide added attraction water in the vicinity of the sp1llway fish 

collection systems. 

51. On September 4 the Tanner Creek by-pass was drained to permi t deepening of the fish-entr,y channel at the mouth of Tanner Creek. 

This was done in order to attract the fish into the creek and up the 

artificial channel to the hatcher,y. 

52. A plastic hydroscope was constructed in December to aid in 

fish counting. This hydroscope was tested and proved successful in 

eliminating surface ripple as well as the glass-bottomed hydroscope 

which was constructed 1n 1942. Botn hydroscopes were designed to 

float on the water above the counting board. 

S 3. Four sections of timber bulkheads were installed in the 

opening of the training wall between spillway bays 17 and 18. 

Sh. Reduction gears from all mechanical screens were removed 

for inspection and cleaning. 

1.3 
5S. Permanent lighting vas installed at the Washington mechanical screens. The motor in the No. 3 section' of the Washington mechanical screens vas rebuilt. 

S6. Early in December repairs vere completed in the Washington 

fish ladder, and it vas revatered. Section No.9, near the north end 

of the powerhouse collection system vas drained on Dlcember h. Repairs 

to this system vere not completed by the end of the year. 

Special Fishety Investigatio~ 

Fatigue Studies 

S7. Washington Department of Fisheries' scientists took tissue 

samples in May from fish captured above and below the dam in an attempt 

to learn the differences in energy consumed by the fish in upstream 

migration. 

S8. In June biologists of the University of Washington obtained 

several blueback salmon from the Oregon Fish Commission tagging trap 

to obtain blood and tissue samples. Samples also vere taken at other 

dams to determine the chemical changes as fish progressed upstream. 

Bugzant Vertical Orifice 

S9. This deVice vas installed on July 16 in opening No. 36 of 

the poverhouse collection system as a project under the North Pacific 

Division Fisheries Engineering Research Program. It operated successfUlly following modifications of the bearings and seals. Fish passage 

under prototype conditions have been observed, but no quantitat1V8 

data were obtained. Photos 2-B and 3-B show views of the orifice and 

buoyancy chamber. It is planned to relocate this special orifice in 

14 

.. 
another gate opening and to make further observations on such automatic regulation of orifices in comparison vi th fixed orifices. 

Fingerling Transport Project 

60. At 2:00 a.m. on May 1 the Washington State Department o~ 

Fisheries transported 250,000 fall chinook salmon fingerlings by barge ) 

through the Bonneville locks for release downstream in the estuary of 

Columbia River. Other groups of ~1n-clipped fish vere released about 

the same time in the adjacent viCinity. 

Fingerling !r-Pass Traps 

61. A biologist of the Washington State Department of Fisheries 

vas stationed at Bonneville Dam to operate the fingerling b.1-pass traps 

which had been reactivated for experimental purposes. Unfortunately, 

12,000 or more (of a total of ten million) fisb released trom the 

Klickitat and Spring Creek hatcheries entered the b.1-pass during one 

24-hour period. It vas impossible for the biologist seeking marked 

fish to examine such a great number in that time. 

Tagging Project 

62. This project vas resumed in June near the Washington ahore 

ladder by the Oregon Fish Commission under contract with the Corps of 

Engineers. This tagging proj ect is being conducted to determine the 

migration time betveen Bonneville and McNary Dams before and after 

completion of The Dalles Dam. See photo 4-B. 

Underwater Observations 

6,3. On August}) the observation chamber vas subnerged in the 

powerhouse collection channel to enable personnel to observe adult 

15 
fisb entering the cbanne1 via entry port No. 6b against a velocity 

created bJ 1.2 feet of bead. The fish entered almost effortlessly 

through the submerged orifice into the collection ohannel. 

U. S. Fish and Wildlife ~erv1oe Activities 

Transplanting Spring Chinook 

64. In April a total of 521 adult ohinook salmon, 12 chinook 

jacks, and 22 steelhead were trapped by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service at the exit of the Washington fish ladder and transported to 

the Tyee Hatohery at Carson, Washington. 

~ Shore Labor8to~ 

65. The U. S. Fish and Wilelife Service operated the north shore 

laborator" for its seoond full year during 1957. Adult fish were diverted by attraotion water from the Washington fish ladder to the 1aborator" holding pool as they were needed at various times during the 

year. Sever81 experiments were oonducted within the laborator" under 

Simulated prototype oonditions. The most important of which were: 

tfFishway Capaoity Experiments", "Passage of Sallllon1ds through Darkened 

FishwayP, and tfThe Effeot of Fishway Slope on the Rate of Passage of 

Salmon1ds." 

Preparation for Work with Experimental Ladder 

66. While the Washington shore fish ladder was unwatered in 

November, a diagonal barr1er vas constructed across the main ladder 

to connect with a lower section of the exit ladder above the laborator" for the purpose of diverting, under oontrolled oonditions, all 

upstream migrants from the main ladder to a six-foot wide experimental 

16 
ladder. Experimental diversions will be made in 1958 to test the efficiency of the narrow ladder. 

Finge!11ng Studies 

67. Fingerling studies which were initiated in 1945 by the U. S. 

Fish and Wildlife Service were terminated near the beginning ot the 

year. A biologist of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service continued on 

the project until June J) to complete certain reports. 

Sonar Tagging 

68. The Pacific Salmon Investigations of the Bu.reau of C0Jlllll8rcia1 

fisheries employed sonic fish tags and underwater racei ving equipment 

to track the movements of individual adult chinook salmon migrants at 

Bonneville Dam. The tish were tagged about 300 yards above the Washington shore fishway exit and their movements were tracked in detail 

in the fore bay as they moved upstream from the dam. Each fish was 

tracked about five hours for a distance of five to six miles from the 

dam; one fish was tracked about 10 miles in 17 hours. No conclusions 

were drawn from these observations, but some of the results suggested 

that the rates of movement ot the tagged fish were greatly reduced in 

periods of darkness. The diurnal fluctuations ot the movements of 

upstream migrants will be investigated in 19;8. 

Fishway Oeeration and Maintenance Costs 

69. The total cost in 1957 of fishway operation and maintenance 

including fish counting, but excluding research and experimental investigations, was $166,701, distributed as follows:

72. Several Canadian engineers and biolOgists and representatives 

of its fishing industry Visited Bonneville Dam during the year and inspected the fish facilities. 

73. The attractions ot features of the dam, the fishways and adjacent hatchery, brought a total of 575,027 visitors to Bonneville Dam 

in 19,7.

ANNUAL REPORT ON '!HE PASSAGE OF FISH 

BONNEVILLE, THE DALLES AND McNARY DAMS 

CALENDAR YEAR 1957 

'ruE DALLES DAM, 

74. During the early stages of construction and up to the final 

closure of the river, fish were free to pass through the open r1 ver 

. section. See photo I-D. Upon completion of the closure the flow was 

diverted through the skeleton powerhouse structure and migrant fish 

passed through the open turbine bays until these were closed and the 

forebay pool was raised to a level sufficient to operate the fish ladders. See photo 2-D. 

75. The north fishway at The Dalles Dam was activated on March 17, 

1957, when the torebay level was raised to 155 feet m.s.l. and water 

started flowing down the Washington ladder. See photos 3-D, 4-D, and 

5-D. Tne fishway auxiliary w~ter radial gate was opened at 6:00 a.m. 

to permit the auxiliar.y water to enter the collection system in a manner calculated to attract fish into the ladder. See photo 6-D. Ftsh 

counting was in1tiated at H:OO a.m. and one steelhead appeared below 

the counting station at 9:20 a.m., but the first fish to cross the 

counting board and enter the foreb~ was tallied at 10:05 a.m. Thirtyfive steelh8ads and two chinook salmon ascended the ladder the first 

day. 

19 
76. The east fish ladder was activated and fish counting was begun at 3:00 p.m. on March 20, 1957. See photos 3-D, 7-D, and 8-D. Between March 20 and May 12 the east ladder and entrances were operated 

with about sao second-feet supplied from the fish-lock water supply 

system and from the forabay. During this period, March 20 to May 12, 

ths south spillway entrance, the only one operating of the east ladder complex, attracted 44 percent of the fish over the dam. One fishwater turbine unit was activated on May 13 and the other on June 29. 

These two turbines supply 5,000 second-feet auxiliary water for the 

east fishway, powerhouse collection and transportation system, and the 

south spillway entrance. See photo 9-D. 

77. On March 28, and continuing throughout the remainder of the 

season, the counting gates were left open at all times for the unimpaired passage of upstream migrants. Fish counting was discontinued 

for the year at The Dalles Dam on November 30, 1951. 

78. The total of all species of fish counted at The Dalles Dam 

during 1957 was 1,199,320 of which 539,112 were salmonids. 

79. The salmonid count comprised 312,678 chinook, 90,201 blueback, 6,793 silver, 75 chum, 4 humpback, and 129,361 steelhead trout. 

The miscellaneous fish total count of 580,208 comprised 16 species. 

Bo. The monthly totals of all species of fish counted at The 

Dalles Dam are shown on table 41. Daily records by months are shown 

in tables 42 to 59, inclusive. Peak days of fish migration for the 

important species, are shown in table 60. 

20 
81. Because of limited fish-counting personnel, the special night 

counts were not as conclusive as desired. However, it was learned that 

the fish moved over The Dalles Dam at nigbt in greater numbers than at 

Bonneville Dam. 

82. On March 28 a daily computation factor ot 1.33 was established 

to compensate tor the US minutes per hour} rest periods tor counters 

when fish passed the coun1:ting boards without being counted. On September 28, 10-minute rest periods were initiated and the com.putation factor was changed to 1.2. 

83. The maxilll\l1'll number of salmonids counted in one day (11,316) 

were censused on May 1, and the maximum number ot miscellaneous tisb 

(19,681) and of all species counted in one day (27,683) were counted 

on June 26. 

8k. No biological experiments were conducted at Tne Dalles Dam 

during 1957. Records were kept, however, of the number of tagged fish 

which passed over the counting boards. 

85. The Dalles Dam supplied water when needed tor power generation at Bonneville Dam during low-water periods. Fishway weirs at the 

upper ends ot the ladders were regulated to compensate for the nuctuating forebq levels. 

86. In order to proude ready comparison of tish migration, plates 

1 to 4, inclusive" show the daily counts of the tour principal salmonid 

species tallied at Bonneville, The Dalles" and McNar.y Dams. 

87. The location of main and appurtenant fish facilities at The 

Dalles Dam are shown in relation to other features on photo lO-D and 

on General Site Map DDG-I-O_6/S.

THE DALLES DAM 

SQrirg Ch1nook Sa~ 

(March 17 - May 31) 

88. Several years of counting data will be necessary to determ1ne 

the terminating date of spec1fic fish runs. Plate 1 indicates that 

there is a two-day difference between the various peaks of the spring 

run between Bonneville and The Dalles Dams. However, for the purpose 

of this report, the same date, May 31, is used as the end of the spring 

run at both Bonneville and The Dalles Dams. 

89. The first spring chinook were counted on March 17 when the 

WaShington or north fish ladder was activated. The east ladder was 

activated on March 20. The peak of the spring run was reached on 

May 1 when 11,098 chinook were counted. The spring run count of 101,593 

c~nook was 32. u9 percent of the total chinook run. Hore spring than 

summer or fall run chinook ascended the north ladder. See tables 60 

and 61, and plate 1. 

Summer Run Ch1nook Salmon 

(June 1 - August 15) 

90. The count data for this run were also arbitrarily terminated 

on the same date as the Bonneville summer run. The summer run of 

133,3hl chinook was h2.65 percent of the total chinook run. The peak 

was reached on June 21 when 8,066 chinook were counted. See tables 60 

and 61, and plate 1. 

22 
Fall Chinook Salm.on 

(August 16 - December 31) 

91. The fall run chinook count data extends from August 16 through 

November)) when fish counting was discontinued for the year. A 'total 

of 77, 7!W chinook were counted during this period, or 2h.87 percent of 

the total chinook run. The fall peak was reached on September 7 when 

h,)S) chinook were counted. See tables 60 and 61" and plate 1. 

92. It should be expected that the fall chinook run at The Dalles 

Dam would be less than that at Bonneville Dam due to the fact that considerable numbers of these fish go into the several hatcheries and 

streams located between Bonneville and The Dalles Dams. Comparative 

data are presented in tables 22 and 61. 

Chinook Jacks or Gnlse 

93. These small male chinook salmon are tallied separate17 but 

are included in all or the chinook counts. An approximate classitica .. 

tion length ot 16 to 18 inChes was established for jacks_ Table 62 

shows the number and percent of chinook jack salmon counted over each 

1'1sh ladder. A total ot 37,374 jacks were counted" or U.9S percent 

of the total chinook run. 

Blueback Salmon 

94. A total ot 90,201 blueback salmon were counted at Tne Dalles 

Dam in 1957. It will be noted that this total exceeds the total ot 

82,91; counted at BonneVille Dam. The difference ma7 be due part17 

to the sample counting which was being conducted at BonneVille Dam dUring the blueback run and also to inaccuracies in counter's ident1t1cation of tr.e species at both dams. 

23 
95. The peak of the bluebaok run was reached on June 25 when 

4,753 bluebacks were counted. See table 60. It will be noted in table 

63 that 47.24 percent of this species ascended the east ladder and 52.76 

percent, the north ladder. 

Silver Salmon 

96. The total of 6,793 silver salmon also exceeded the Bonneville 

count (4,675) of th~s speoies. Table 64 shows that 61.6; percent ascended the east ladder and 38.17 percent, the north ladder. The peak 

was reached on September 16 when sao silvers were counted. See plate ;. 

Chum. Salmon 

97. Only 75 fish of th~s species were counted at The Dalles Dam; 

all in November. See table 41. This run develops late in the year, 

tne count at Bonneville Dam was 569. Chum salmon normally spawn nearer 

the ocean; therefore, the fish which swam inland as far as The Dalles 

Dam penetrated farther than anticipated. The "peaklt was reached on 

November 22 when 12 anum salmon were oounted. 

Humpback Salmon 

98. Four humpback salmon ascended the east ladder; two in September and two in November. See table 41. 

~elhead Trou!:. 

99. A total of 129,)61 steelhead trout were counted at The Dalles 

Dam in 1957. Tne count for the summer runs between June 1 and August 25 

amounted to 78,142 or 60.5 percent of the total run. The peak was 

reached on July 31 when 3,)66 steelhead were counted. It will be noted 
· . 

in table 6S that 55.56 percent ascended the east ladder and 44.44, percent, the north ladder .. 

100.. In early March and April the movement of staelbead trout over 

The DaLles Dam was greater than over Bonneville Dam. Summer and fall 

run steelhead are known to move upstream rather slowly and to spawn the 

following spring. Normally at BonneVllle and McNar" Dams appreciable 

nUll1bers ot steelhead may be found wintering in the fish ladders. However, ver" few steelbead were found when the ladders were drained at 

The Dalles Dut. Also, no eVidence of spawning was found in the gravel 

noor sections of the north fish ladder. 

Miscellaneous SpeC!!! 

~ 

101. Prior to the inundation of Celilo Falls, shad were taken in 

that region b.1 dip-net fishermen. The first sbad appeared in the fish 

ladders at The Dalles Dam in June and none were observed after October 6. 

A total of 5,106 shad were counted at '!'he Dalles Dam in 19.5'7.. About 

62.4 percent had a preference for the entrances leading to the east 

ladder. See tables 41 and 66. Shad did not congregate in the vel.r 

pools or the ladders at The Dalles Dam to the extent observed at Bonneville Dam. 

Miscellaneous Trout and Whitefish 

102. The first year's count of these food fish at The Dalles Dam 

was 9,965 and 10,631, respectively, wh1Ch together comprise about 3.5 

percent or the 1I11.sce11aneous species. See table hl. 

25 
Ling 

10; Forty-three ling were oounted at The Dalles Dam. A tew ot 

this speoies have been observed at Bonneville Dam but only as downstream migrants. It i. interesting to note that ling moving upstream 

have been counted both at McNary and The Dalles Dams. See table 41. 

Sturgeon 

104. The river below Cell10 Falls and the reach whioh 1s now 

immediately below the taoe ot the powerhouse were heavily populated 

with sturgeon prior to construction ot The Dalles Dam. Only one 

sturgeon, about three teet long, was counted at The Dalles Dam counting stations in 1951. Several other sturgeon were observed in the 

north ladder but did not cross the counting board. More ot this species 

may have ascended the ladders during the night when counting was suspended. It has been observed in twenty years ot experience at Bonneville Dam that this species is usually observed at the counting stations 

early in the morning or late in the evening. Also, this species does 

not enter the tish locks in the day time as readily as at night. 

Lamprey 

105. A total ot 6;,100 lampreys were counted in 1951 at The Dalles 

Dam which should be substantially a reliable acoount ot lamprey passage. 

Whereas the total ot 5;,0;1 lampreys counted at Bonneville Dam is reoognized as a partial oount. 

Suckers and Squawtish 

106. A total count of 296,;85 suckers and 10; ,481 squawfish comprised about 70 percent ot the total ot miscellaneous tish whioh were 

counted in 1951 at The Dalles Dam. See table 41. 

26 
Daoe and S,uawtish Fingerlings 

101. '4 large number ot daoe and squawtish tingerlings oongregated 

and lived in what proVed to be a nursery area at the upper ends ot the 

tish ladders. As the season advanoed, these small fish grew larger and 

later disappeared tram the region ot the counting stations. Dace appear 

to be much more abundant at The Dalles Dam than at Bonneville Dam. 

other Misoellaneous Speoies 

108. The total oount ot eight species of other'miscellaneous tish, 

including both food and scrap fiah, amounted to 91,490 or about 15.7 

percent cf the total miscellanecus flah count. See table 41. 

Activities and Observations 

Fiah Lock 

109. The fiah lock water supply valves were operated to supply 

the auxiliary water tor the south spillway entranoe until the two tishwater turbine unita were activated. Installation of the bratl in the 

fish look was completed later in the year but the mechanical featurea 

were not tested and no attempt ... made to lift fish to the forebay via 

the fish look. See photo~ 11-D and l2-D. 

110. Adit ~., or the fish lock approach-fiahway entrance, waa 

designed to attract fiah trom the lagoOD, or cuI de sac, between the 

ealt fish ladder and the closure dam across the entrance to the old 

The Dalles-Celi10 canal. This tiahwaywas oper.ted almost the entire 

seasOD. This entrance with ita filhway leads either to the east ladder or to the approach tishway to the fish lock. Numerous salmon and 

other fiahea have been observed entering at adit "aM to aaoend the ealt 
ladder to the forebq, however, no precise count vas made. The fact 

that salmon have been observed in this isolated fishway entrance is 

additional eVidence that they search out the entrances of fish passaget) at a dam.. 

Fish Ladders 

IlL The fish ladders, as deSigned, functioned efficiently. A 

few minor changes were made and observations on others which may be 

necessar,y are as follows: 

a. Wave action in the north ladder exit area was minimized, 

first by a floating log boom around the counting board which was replaced later in the season by' a buoyant floating boom of metal pipe. 

b. A barrier of plywood was installed to prevent forebq 

waves from washing through the trash rack grating into the east ladder eXit causing a pulse or change in depth of water of the counting 

board. The plywood barrier was later replaced by' metal plates welded 

to the trash rack$ extending two feet below the water surface. 

c. Some difficulty was encountered with the counting gate 

guides in adjusting the counting boar.ds. 

d. Investigation into the presence of air bubbles in the 

auxiliar,y water entering the downstream end of the east fish ladder 

disclosed that these bubbles were carried into the ladder from a vortex in the auxilisr,y wster valve chambers. This phenomenon occurred 

at minimum tailwster level. It is not known how fish react to the 

presence of air bubbles. 

26 
Powerhouse Collection'System 

112. Some boils or upwellings of the water from. the diffusion cham.-

bers have been found in the powerhouse collection system.. By throttling 

or partial closure of the powerhouse auxiliary water supply valves, the 

upwelling force could be reduced. These attem.pts were not entirely successful, but experience should indicate the desirable operation. Furthermore, it is not known if the upwellings are in1m.ical to fish passage. 

113. At tim.es there appeared to be evidence of a lack of current 

velocities in the transportation flow from. east to west in the powerhouse collection channel. To attain a directional flow, or a transportation flow in this channel, several of the entry gates were closed 

at the east end of the powerhouse collection system.. This raised the 

head and caused the water to flow trom. the junction pool with surface 

evidence of current. Earlier experiments at Bonneville indicated that 

a head greater than 12 inches, when used with submerged orifice entry 

ports, proved m.ore effiCient in attracting the fish into the collection system. than the designed 12 inches of head. 

Fish-Counting Schedule - 1921 

114. Jan 1 - Mar 16 - No counting pertorm.ed. 

Mar 11 - Apr 21 - Counter on duty for eight hours daily at 

north ladder. Counting at east ladder 

began on March 20, eight bours daily. Beginning March 28 gates at counting stations 

were left open continuously day and night. 

29 
Apr 22 ~ Sep 27 - Counters on duty for two eight-hour shifts, 

counting 16 hours daily at each station. 

Computation factor of 1.33 was used to compensate for the lS-minute rest periods per 

hour during which time no counting was performed. 

Sep 28 - Oct 19 - Ten-minute rest periods per hour were initiated and day-time factor changed to 1.2. 

Night time factor computations were added 

before monthly reports were issued. 

Oct 20 - Nov 30 - Counting performed eight hours daily at 

both stations. 

Dec 1 - Dec 31 - Fish counting discontinued. Fish were free 

to pass upstream through the open gates at 

counting stations. 

Fishway Construction and Repairs 

115. It was found that the cables on which the various regulating 

gates were suspended vibrate in the water passing from the fish facilities into the tailrace. Some of these cables broke due to oscillation or corrosion from the chemicals used to "tin" the cables when 

the,y were fastened into the thimbles with molten zinc. 

Qperation of Fish Facilities 

116. Electric hoists and suitable controls have been installed to 

raise or lower the fish entry gates. When telescopic gates are not 

adequate to control the water flow at the particular tai1water or 
• 

headwater level, stop logs are placed in stop-log slots adjacent to the 

telescopic gates. Regulation of the fish facilities is accomplished 

chiefly by use of the push-button controls. 

117. Prior to raising the pool level from 155 to 160 feet elevation on July 16, the forebay level sometimes fell below 155 feet. At 

that time it was difficult to maintain the proper quantity of water in 

the two ladders. Later in the season forebay level fluctuation was 

necessary in order to spill water from The Dalles Dam pool to supply 

the Bonneville Dam pool. Weir crests of the upper regulating weirs 

were lowered or raised accordingly to compensate for ,the changes in 

the forebay level. Experience indicates that a slightly greater quantity of water than is absolutely necessary is more desirable than too 

little water in the ladder. 

118. The Dalles Dam may furnish an opportunity to determine the 

preference of fish for streaming or plunging flow over the weir crests. 

An experiment could be set up in the north ladder wherein the conditions may be alternated at three-day intervals throughout the season. 

The count at the forebay would show Which condition the fish prefer. 

The streaming-flow condition would be created by a greater quantity 

of water and the plunging flow by a lesser quantity. However, with 

too little 8 seiche oscillation may occur. 

119. In the east ladder two types of oscillation, either monodal 

or trinodal, can be created depending upon the quantity of water in 

the ladder. Arter the seiche oscillation was found in the Washington 

ladder at Bonneville and in the Oregon ladder at McNary Dam, extensive 
studies were undertaken in the Hydraulic Laboratory at Bonneville Dam 

to determine the cause and the remedy for the situation. The weir 

crests for The Dalles Dam were designed accordingly. It is also found 

that another solution or correction of sucn a condition is to introduce more water into the ladders until the resonance of the oscillation is destroyed and a normal flow results. 

SpeCial Studies and Observations 

120. No biological experiments were conducted at The Dalles Dam -

during this first year of operation. The fish counters kept a record 

of the number of tagged fish which passed over the counting boards. 

Also, a record was kept of fish carrying sonar transmitters which were 

attached to the fish at Bonneville Dam. 

Indian Dip Netting 

121. Dip netting was permitted from the Oregon side of the Columbia River, between the Wasco County bridge and a line extending 

south from the spillway dam to the Oregon shore. A number of platforms were built and some dip netting was noted during the season, 

but it was reported that the catch was not great. 

Celilo Falls 

122. Inasmuch as Celilo Falls was important to the management of 

the fishery on the Columbia River and has been inundated since The 

Dalles ~ was constructed, an aerial photograph is included which ' 

was taken before raising the pool and inundation of the falls. See 

photo I)-D.

11 
Fish Migration Between Bonneville, The Dalles and McNarY Dams 

123. A series of tagging operations were in progress b.Y the 'Oregon 

Fish Commission in 1956 and 1957 under the North Pacific Division Research Program to determine the travel time of various species between 

Bonneville and McNar,y Dams and to ascertain the effect of The Dalles 

Dam on the passage of fish. Tabulation of data and the report on this 

stuqy are in progress. 

124. It appears that the data on plate 1 may be interpreted as indicating that the peak of migration found the fishway entrances at The 

Dalles Dam and passed over that dam within two days after leaving Bonneville Dam. The individual peaks of blueback salmon between Bonneville 

and The Dalles Dams indicate even a lesser time. 

Sea Gulls Feeding Below Spillwal 

125. In September numerous sea gulls were observed feeding below 

the spillway at The Dalles Dam. It is believed that very few small 

salmon were migrating at that time. Experience gained at Bonneville 

and McNary Dams proves that the sea gulls feed on fingerling salmon, 

small trash fish, and on small lampreys. 

Salmon Mortality Below the Dam 

126. Following the peak of the fall run of fish at The Dalles Dam, 

several reports were received of the presence of dead fish in the river. 

Several dead salmon were observed floating below the dam and a number 

of dead salmon were observed in the forebay. The cause of mortality 

is not known and more study will be necessar,y to obtain information on 

any future losses.

ANNUAL REPORT ON '!HE PASSAGE OF FISH 

BONNEVILLE, mE DALLES AND McNARY DAMS 

CALENDAR YEAR 1957 

McNARY DAM 

Summary 

132. The number of chinook and silver salmon and steelhead trout 

which migrated upstream by means of the fish facilities at McNar,r Dam 

during the calendar year of 1957 exceeded all yearly counts to date. 

Blueback salmon counts, however, were the lowest of any year since 

fish counting was initiated in 1954. The total salmonid count for 

1957 was nearly 25 percent higher than any previous year's total and 

exceeded the four-year ·average by more than 35 percent. 

133. The total of all species counted was 1,090,350. The salmonid 

count of 486,739 comprised 292,696 chinook, 85,460 blueback, 2,855 

silver and 105,728 steelhead trout. The total count of miscellaneous 

fish was 603,611 comprising 15 species. 

134. Yearly totals of all fish which ascended McNar,r Dam during 

the period 1954-1957, inclusive, appear in table 67. Monthly totals 

for 1957 appear in table 68. Daily records by months are compiled in 

tables 69 to 89, inclusive. Peak days of fish migration by species 

for the four-year period are shown in table 90. 

135. The maximum number of salmonids counted during one day in 

1957 was 8,190 on June 26. Miscellaneous fish reached a maximum count 

of 13,331 on July 12. The maximum number of all species counted in 
one day was 20,883 on July 8. Monthly counts of salmon and steelhead 

trout for the years 1954-1957, inclusive, are shown in tables 91 -to 94, 

inclusive, and miscellaneous species counted over the same period are 

shown in table 95. The number and percent of salmonids counted over 

each fish ladder are shown in tables 96 to 100, inclusive, and the 

yearly percentage of salmonids counted over each fish ladder for the 

years 1954-1957, inclusive, appears in table 101. 

136. Fish counting was conducted daily during the period, March 17 

and October 19, 1957. A sample-count method was employed for a short 

period in the spring and again in the fall while experimental work. was 

not being performed. The fish-counting SChedule is shown in paragraph 156. 

137. The large increase in the counts of chinook and silver salmon and stee1head trout passing McNary Dam is to a conSiderable extent 

due to State regulations on cessation of commercial fishing above Bonneville Dam and to the elimination of the Indian fisheries at Ce1ilo 

Falls by inundation by the pool of The Dalles Dam. 

138. The Washington shore fish ladder was unwatered for annual 

maintenance on January 9 and returned to service on March 1. This 

ladder was unwatered again on November 4 and remained unwatered for 

the balance of the year. The Oregon fish ladder was not unwatered in 

the spring of 1957 and was operable all year. 

139. Various types of experimental work were performed during the 

year at McNary D8JI\ by Corps of Engineers' personnel and by representatives of fishery agencies engaged in contracts under the Corps of Engineers' fishery research program.

Spring Chinook Salmon 

(March 1 - June 15) 

142. Fish counting was initiated on 17 March. A1 though only six 

spring chinook were counted in March, the spring run developed into a 

record-breaking total ot 111,159, over twice the four-year average of 

52,292 and over three times as great as the 1954-1956 average of 32,669. 

The peak of the spring run was reached on Mal" 4 when 7,075 chinook 

were counted. The spring run comprised 31.98 percent of the total 

chinook run which is conSiderably higher than tbe 1954-1956 average 

ot 28.01 percent. See tables 61, 68, and 91, and plates 1 and 9. 

Summer Run Chinook Salmon 

(June 16 - August 31) 

143. The summer run ot 129,854 chinook also constituted a new 

record and considerably exceeded the tour-year average ot 18,910 and 

the 1954-1956 average of 15,)42. The peak of tbe summer run occurred 

on June 26 when 1,616 chinook were counted. The summer run comprised 

44.36 percent ot the total chinook run. See tables 61, 68, and 91, 

and plates 1 and 9. 

Fall Chinook Salmon 

(September 1 - December 31) 

144. A total ot 51,683 fall chinook were counted in 1951. This 

tota1.exceeded all previous fall chinook runs passing McNary Dam. The 

peak of the run was reached on September 13 when 2,963 chinook were 

counted. The fall run was 11.66 percent of the total chinook run. 

39 
The four-year average for the fall run is 19,366 whereas the 1954-1956 

average was 8,593. See tables 67, 68, and 91, and plates 1 and 9. 

Chinook Jacks or Gri1se 

145. These small male chinook salmon are tallied separately but 

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

of 18 inches, established in 1954, was used in 1957. A maximum length 

of 24 inches was used in 1955 and 1956 at the request of the Oregon 

Fish Commission. Of the total cldnook run, 13.35 percent were jacks. 

Table 97 shows the number and percent of chinook jack salmon counted 

over each fish ladder. 

Blueback Salmon 

146. The total count of 85,460 blueback salmon was the lowest 

since fish counting was initiated at McNary Dam in 1954. The fouryear average is 117,386. The peak of the run was reach~d on July 11 

when 5,763 blueback were counted. Table 98 shows the number and percent of blueback salmon counted over each fish ladder. See also 

tables 67, 90, and 92, and plates 2 and 10. 

Silver Sa!!!!2!!, 

147. A total of 2,855 silver salmon ascended the ladders at McNar,r 

Dam which is the highest number tallied since fish counting was initiated in 1954. The four-year average is 1,283. The peak of the run 

occurred on September 25 when 208 silvers were counted. See tables 67, 

9Q, 93, and 99, and p1~tes 3 and 11. 

Chum Salmon 

148. No chum salmon were counted in 1957. 

40 
• 

5teelhead Trout 

lL.9. The steelhead trout run reached a record-breaking total or 

10;,728. The peak ot the run occurred on October; when ),028 steelhead were counted. The four-year average is 77,229 while the average 

for 19,L.-19,6 is 67,729. The percentage use ot each fish ladder is 

shown in table 100. Other pertinent data on steelheads are shown on 

tables 67 and 9L., and plates L. and 12. 

M.aximWll Abundance and Yearly Percenta&! of Salmonida 

Counted Over Each Fish Ladder 

lSO. The maximum number of all species of fish counted in one day 

in 1957 was 20,88) on July B. This number comprised 2,002 chinook, 

;,)96 blueback, 236 steelhead, and 1),2L.9 miscellaneous fish. The 

peak daily salmonid count of 8,190 was reached on June 26, and the 

peak miscellaneous fish count ot 1),).31 on July 12. See tables 77 

and SO. 

IS1. The yearl,. percentage use of fish ladders by all salmoDid 

species for the years 19,L.-19'7, inclusive, is shown in table 101. 

Miscellaneous Species 

Shad 

- 152. The shad run reached an exceptional total of 636. Only four 

shad were counted in 1956, and none were observed in 195L. and 19S5 • 

See table 68. 

Other Miscellaneous Species 

153. The total count of 16 species of miscellaneous fish of lesser importance, including both food and scrap fish, amounted to 60),611, 
, 

the lowest number since fish counting was initiated at McNary Dam in 

19$4. The four-year average is 724,912. The miscellaneous fish count 

outnumbered the salmonid count by' only 24 percent, the first year that 

the count of miscellaneous species has not exceeded the salmonid count 

by over 100 percent. Suckers were again the most numerous, comprising 

71 percent of the miscellaneous fish count. See tables 67, 68, and 9S. 

Activities and Observations 

WaShington Fish Lock 

1,4. The Washington fish lock was used as a primary fish-passage 

facility for a short period in the fall of 19;7 in conjunction with 

the fall chinook trapping program to stock the supplemental spawning 

channel below McNary Dam. 

Pressure Fish Lock 

IS5. A series of tests were performed on the pressure fish lock 

in the late summer in order to gain additional information on the efficiency of the lock as a fish-passage facility. 

Fish-Counting Schedule - 1957 

1;6. Jan 1 - Mar 16 - No counting performed. Fish were free to 

pass upstream through the open counting 

gates. 

Mar 17 - Apr 13 - Counters on duty eight hours daily, seven 

days per week; one at each station. Ladders were closed dUring non-counting periods. 

Apr 14 - Apr 27 - Sample counting. Counting performed in 

tour-hour periods alternating between 

42 
counting stations" 16 hours daily. Counting gates remained open at all times. 

Apr 28 - Sap 2u - FUll-time counting resumed, 16 hours at both 

ladders. Counting station gates closed during non-counting periods. 

Sep 2S - Oct 19 - Sample counting resumed on the April 14 - 27 

schedule. 

Oct 20 - X.c IS - Fish counting discontinued. Stations were 

left open; fish were free to pass upstream 

through the open counting gates. 

Dec 16 ... Dec 31 ... Spot counting al ternately between counting 

stations at two-hour intervals. Stations 

were left open to fish passage at all times. 

Fish Facility Repairs and Overhaul 

lS7. tbe semi-plastic sealant which was used to seal the leaking 

construction joints in the Washington fish ladder early in 19S7 proved 

unsatisfactol"1' During the maintenance period in late 19;7, the joints 

were refilled b.Y pressure application. 

IS8. All rotoval vas in the gravity water supply system of the 

Washington ladder were removed and checked for necessary repairs. 

Some of the valves had been under tailwater since installation. Worn 

gears, bent stems, and some cavitation were in evidence on most valves. 

IS9. The supply pipe in diffusion chamber No.1 of conduit No. It. 

of the gravity water supply system. of the Washington ladder, which 

cavitated and eroded through the chamber wall in 19S6, was removed. 

1t.3 
, 

Subsequent investigation disclosed serious cavitation on all supply 

pipes at this location. These supply 11nes were removed during lower 

tailwater conditions and will be replaced with new piping and orifice 

plates to prevent further damage. 

l~. Upon unwatering the lower end of the Washington fish ladder 

in November, the fiXed weir at elevation 251 was found loosened from 

its position and leaning downstream. This weir was removed and a new 

one will be constructed early in 1958. 

161. A permanent umratering pump was placed in the upper end of 

tne Washington ladder in the fall of 1957. 

162. One of the Chapman valves which supplied attraction water 

to diffusion chamber No. I of the Oregon shore collection system was 

removed and placed in a secondary gran ty supply conduit at the upstream ,md of the Oregon ladder. This valve will control the water 

supp17 for the supplemental spawning channel below the dam. More details are given in paragraph 170, Supplementary Spawning Channel. 

SpeCial Fishe;y Investigations 

Oregon Fish Collection System Studies 

163. These studies were continued in 1957 to determine the percentage ot salmonids using the closed or inside channel since the 

operation of all main generating units moved the water discharge 

pattern northward. Counts were made at a temporary station during 

the spring, summer, and fall runs of chinook salmon, also during a 

short period when the Washington ladder was operating on 8 reduced 

flow. The percentage of salmonids which used the closed channel 

44 
remained low, closely resembling the figures previously determined. 

The range of use was from 0.$8 to 4.1h percent of all salmonids passing McNa1".J' Dam with an average of 1.6H percent. 

Travel Rate of Chinook Salmon in Oregon Fish Lad~ 

164. In order to determine the travel rate of chinook salmon in 

the Oregon ladder, a count at lO-minute intervals over a 24-bour period 

was undertaken in 19$7 as a check to corroborate the counts obtained 

in 19$6. Only two stations were opera~d in 19$7, one at weir elevation 282 and the other at the regular counting station. On May 9 a 

lack ot fish detracted trom the first count ot the chinook movement, 

but the results closely approxi1ll8ted the results obtained during :the 

spring chinook movement in 19$6, which indicated: (I) the time spent 

by chinook selmon in each pool averaged about 2.6 minutes, and (2) 

based on the rate of 2.6 minutes per pool, the average travel rate 

was 7.7 teet per minute. 

16$. On July 11 blueback salmon predominated the fish runs and 

there were indications that the rate of movement was somewhat faster. 

On this date the average time spent in each pool was 2.1 minutes, and 

the average travel rate was 9".$ feet per minute. 

FinserlinB ~-Pass Tests 

166. A study which was begun in 1956 to determine the size of 

downstream migrant salmonida and the migration period, was continued 

in 19$7. TWo traps were installed, one in each by-pass ot the Oregon 

fish ladder. The traps were raised daily during the period of downstream migration. The peak of migration was again in May, the same as 

h$ 
indicated in 1956. Twenty-seven species of fish and ofS bull frog 

were recovered from the traps. Ibring the 19,7 migration period, 16 

of the ice and trash sluiceway gates along the upstream face of the 

powerhouse were lowered one foot to direct some of the fingerlings 

into the sluiceway, thus diverting them from the turbines in the powerhouse. A trapping effort at the pOint of fall into the sluiceway was 

unsuccessful in 1957 due to an inadequate .trap, but speCial traps will 

be designed for the 1958 season in an effort to determine the success 

of the sluiceway as a by-pass. 

Oregon Shore Entrance Studi!! 

167. Another study was Made on the Oregon, or south shore, entrance in 1957 to gather data on the experiment begun in 19". lllring 

the spring chinook run, the entrances were opened and then closed for 

alternating five-day periods each, for a total of So days, thus providing five lO-day cycles. During the blueback movement, a series of 

two-day cycles, one day open followed by one day closed, were run, 

also for a 50-day period, providing 25 two-day cycles. The results 

of the 1957 study, as in the 19" experim~nt, indicated no change in 

the fish count at the Oregon counting station, and no Visual evidence 

of fish accumulating during the periods that the south fish entrance 

gates were closed. 

Washington Fish Lock 

168. The Washington fish lock was used for a short period in the 

fall of 1957 in an attempt to obtain chinook for the supplementar" 

spawning channel. All fish moving into the Washington ladder were 

46 
raised by the lock, the chinook were removed and other fish were released in the forebay. 

Pressure Fish Lock 

169. A series of tests was run on the pressure lock in the fall 

of 1957 to obtain more information on the efficiency of the lock. This 

series was concentrated on the use of short exit-time periods. 

SuppleM9nta~ Spawning Channel 

170. A supplementary spawning channel was constructed at McNary 

Dam for experimental purposes. See photo 3-M. It will be operated 

by the Washington Department of Fisheries under a contract with the 

Corps of Engineers, as a project under the Corps' research program. 

The channel contains an upwelling pool, a graded gravel section and 

a river run gravel section with variations in gradient in each of the 

stream sections. The purpose of the channel is to determine the best 

criteria for chinook spawning in future artificial spawning channels. 

The salmon used to stock the channel were taken from traps in the Oregon fish ladder and tram the Washington fish lock. 

Blueback Salmon Fati~e Studies 

171. Members of the School of Fisheries, University of Washington, 

conducted fatigue experiments on blueback salmon at McNary Dam in 1957. 

See photo 2-M. These tests consisted of forcing the fish to swim in 

a stream of water of known velocity until fatigued. Similar tests 

were performed at other dams to check'the condition of the salmon 

along their migration route. 

47 
Migration of Salmon Past Thq Dalles Dam Si~e 

172. The study began in 1956 under the Corps of Engineers' research 

program to determine the effect of The Dalles Dam on the travel rate of 

upstream salmon and steelhead migrants was continued in 1957. Adult 

salmon were tagged at Bonneville Dam by the Oregon Fish Commission and 

recovered in traps at the exits of the Oregon fish ladder at McNar,y Dam. 

Fall Chinook Tagging 

173. In an effort to determine the areas and times of spawning in 

the Columbia River above McNar,y Dam, fall chinook salmon were tagged 

by a biologist of the Washington Department of Fisheries. Tag colors 

were changed weekly as an aid in determining the pattern of fall chinook spawning in the area. 

Inspection of Fish for Symptoms of Columnaris 

174. Memoers of the Microbiology Department of the University of 

Washington visited McNary Dam occasionally during the summer of 1957 

to examine salmon specimens for Columnaris. On a number of occasions 

a high frequency of inre~tion was encountered in blueback salmon and 

various scrap fish. 

Fishway Operation and Maintenance Costs 

175. The total cost of fishway operation and maintenance in 1957 

was $165,800, itemized as follows: 

Fishway Operations 

Fishway Maintenance 

Fish Counting 

Total 

$62,565 

89,885 

13,350 

$165,800 

48 
176. In addition to the above costs, a total of 24,704,240 kilowatt hours of electricity were used by fishway pumps in supplying attraction water to the south shore facilities. 

Weather and River-Flow Data 

177. The daily records of weather conditions, barometer readings, 

precipitation data, river discharges, and turbidity readings are recorded on the monthly salmonid fish-count tables. The daily turbidity 

readings, river now, and water temperatures are plotted for the year 

on plate 28. 

Visitors 

178. Representatives of Fox Movietone News photographed features 

of the fish facl1i ties at McNary Dam in May, 1957. 

179. Because of the daMS under construction or proposed by public 

and private agencies, as well as the interest in the Supplemental 

Spawning Channel below the dam, a large number of officials, engineers, 

and biologists from Public Utility Districts, private power companies, 

and State agencies, inspected the fish facilit.ies at McNary Dam in 1957. 

180. A total of 96,000 visitors were recorded at McNary Dam during 

the year 1957.
