On June 22nd, federal agencies operating in the
Columbia River Basin released the Federal
Columbia River Power System (“FCRPS”) 2010-

the agencies will accomplish the actions and
commitments mandated by the FCRPS 2008
Biological Opinion and the 2010 Supplemental

Species Act.

Among the major actions discussed in the plan are
changes to hydropower operations and measures
to protect or improve habitats and reform hatcheries.
Additional actions focus on managing predators,
encouraging research to develop better harvest
techniques, and developing research, monitoring,
and evaluation programs to support their efforts and
provide accountability.
