PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE PRESENTATION Robert McDonald of Normandeau Associates gave a slide presentation on Salmon Recovery Planning in Douglas County. Mr. McDonald said in the last decade, the federal government listed salmon, steelhead, and bull trout across the state as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Recovery Plans are required by the ESA to recover endangered and threatened species. The Upper Columbia Salmon Recovery Board has taken on the challenge of coordinating the development of regional salmon recovery plans for their region of the state. The plans will integrate the habitat, hatcheries, hydro and harvest factors in meeting recovery goals and involve local citizens, land owners, city and county governments, and salmon recovery groups, as well as, state, federal and tribal governments in the development.
