ODFW Fish
Screening Task Force to meet in Salem
SALEM, Ore. -
Oregon's Fish Screening Task Force will meet Thursday, Oct. 1 at ODFW
Headquarters, 4034 Fairview Industrial Drive SE, Salem, OR 97302. The meeting
will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the agenda
includes an update on projects
and activities from throughout Oregon.
The ODFW Fish Screening Program coordinates a cost share program
for the installation of screens at water diversions. Fish screens prevent the
loss of fish when water is used for irrigation, municipal, hydroelectric or
other beneficial purposes. The Task Force is appointed by the Oregon Fish and
Wildlife Commission and its members represent agricultural, fisheries and
public interests. It meets several times a year to advise the Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife on fish screening policies and issues.
Reasonable accommodations are provided as needed for individuals
requesting assistive hearing devices, sign language interpreters or large-print
materials. Individuals needing these types of accommodations may call the
Information and Education Division at 800-720-6339 or 503-947-6002 at least 24 hours before the meeting.
For more information, call Pete Baki, Statewide Fish Screening Coordinator, at 503-947-6217.
