Compromise? by Keith Carlson Lewiston Tribune, October 10, 2021

Fish versus the dams: Once again last week, we read in the Lewiston Tribune a complete rebuttal to barging fish that favored tearing out the four lower Snake River dams to restore fish populations. The two sides could not be further apart.

Rather than continue to do the same old thing or spend more than $34 billion to tear the dams out with many unknown consequences, how about trying something new?

The Whoosh Fish Innovation System is a low-cost solution that is being tried out on other river systems. Please check it out here.

I am sure that the extremists on both sides will probably find fault with this possible compromise, but more fish without spending billions seems like something that should be reviewed. Think how stupid we would be to tear the dams out and then find out that this new innovation really does work.
