Federal Columbia River Power System 2016 Comprehensive Evaluation
The Comprehensive Evaluation provides a cumulative report of progress made by the Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Bonneville Power Administration, known as the Action Agencies, in carrying out the salmon and steelhead conservation actions included in the NOAA Fisheries 2008 Biological Opinion and 2014 Supplemental Biological Opinion for the operation of the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS).
The FCRPS Biological Opinion reflects an extensive effort by the Action Agencies in partnership with regional federal agencies, states and tribes to protect listed species of Columbia and Snake River salmon and steelhead, and improve their designated critical habitat.
