On Wednesday December 3, 2009 our beautiful Upper Deschutes River Basin took one more step to reconnecting the historic Metolius, Crooked, and Deschutes Rivers with salmon and steelhead populations. Since the dams construction over 40 years ago, the barrier that we saw at Pelton/Round Butte Dam has now become a unique model of how government agencies, private industry, and Native American Tribes can all work together cooperatively to benefit salmon and steelhead reintroduction to the Upper Deschutes Basin.

Recently, a friend of mine let me borrow a DVD called Rivers of a Lost Coast. I heard through the grapevine that the film had a marvelous production value, well referenced historical data and loads of archival photos and film. I was not to be disappointed with this offering from the boys and girls over at Skinny Fist Productions.

I am writing in support of our state's amazing streams and rivers, and support for Senate Bill 1060. I am writing on behalf of the Upper Deschutes Home Rivers Initiative, which combines regional staff and the 410 members of our local Deschutes Chapter to increase stewardship efforts in Central Oregon.
