Announcement | Presentations & Abstracts

The Yakima/Klickitat Fisheries Project along with partners Bonneville Power Administration and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service hosted the second annual Klickitat & White Salmon Rivers (Washington Gorge) Fisheries and Watershed Science Conference on Mar. 10, 2009 at the Gorge Discovery Center in The Dalles, OR.

The theme of this year's conference was "Fisheries in Flux", an attempt to address how science related to fisheries and watersheds is responding to changes in the natural and policy environment, and how new data and research help to shape management in the watersheds of the Washington Gorge. Topics ran the gamut from dam removal to resource management to spring chinook enumeration via camera to on-the-ground habitat restoration projects.

The YKFP is grateful to our partners as well as The Discovery Center for helping to make this exciting event possible, and we hope those who attended found the exchange of watershed and fisheries information beneficial and interesting.
