Kulongoski Stands Up for Salmon
by: Evan Manvel | October 9, 2009 - 14:41
In case you missed it: In Friday's Oregonian, Governor Ted Kulongoski stands up for salmon in the Columbia and Snake Rivers and against another dithering administration response, writing:
"Compared to the approximately $1 billion the federal government has committed to non-dam-related actions, such as hatchery improvements and habitat work, we believe that, dollar for dollar, making the hydro system less harmful to fish is a far better investment, with guaranteed returns."
Kudos to Kulongoski for saying it like it is.
