The goal of the minor fishway modifications project is to improve passage conditions for adult Pacific lamprey. The goal for this specific project is to improve passage through the lower fishways of The Dalles East Fish Ladder and John Day South Fish Ladder, where lack of surface attachment structure has been identified as a likely contributor to passage failure. The Fish Ladders located at The Dalles, Wasco County, Oregon and Klickitat County, Washington, and John Day, Sherman County, Oregon and Klickitat County, Washington require modification by the installation of various sizes of stainless steel plates to the floors of existing fish ladders.
