This year river managers found significant successes in using water from Dworshak Dam to cool Snake River water into mid-September, two weeks beyond operations called for by the NOAA Fisheries 2000 biological opinion. In addition, it was noted at the meeting that changes in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ flood control operations this spring resulted in additional water available from Dworshak reservoir that could be used when it was needed the most.
