<i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Calif</i>.– Today the Trinity River Guides
Association and the California Water Impact Network asked the Trinity River
Restoration Program to take a break to determine if river restoration projects
completed to date have met their objectives or had unintended impacts.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The letter states that there is public
concern about significant filling of pool habitat for adult salmon and
steelhead from excessive gravel introduction into the river channel as well as
numerous side channel failures.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Bill Dickens of the Guides
Association said, “There is no choice but to oppose this type of project until
an evaluation of the existing projects is complete.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We are just asking the Restoration Program to
do what is already required as part of the Trinity River Record of Decision.” <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The Record of Decision was signed by former
Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt and former Hoopa Valley Tribe Chairman Duane
Sherman in Hoopa on December 19, 2000.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Tom Stokely with C-WIN said
“The Interior Department and the Trinity River Restoration Program are not
responsive to public concerns.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The Guides
Association wrote a letter on March 14, 2011 that has still not received a
response. It’s inexcusable.”<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>C-WIN is
the successor organization to Friends of Trinity River that closed earlier this
year after the passing of Friends founder Byron Leydecker.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Dickens said “As fishing
guides, we fully support restoration of the river’s fisheries, but we’re not
convinced that they are doing it the right way.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">
</span>It’s time to take a break and look at what’s been done before tens of
millions of additional taxpayer dollars are spent.”</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Stokely added “C-WIN and the
Guides Association have long been supporters of the goals of the Trinity River
Restoration Program, but the Program has ignored the stakeholders for too long
and we have no choice but to speak up before more money is wasted on failed
projects.”</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">A copy of the letter can be

intended that the letter dated March 14, 2011 (copy enclosed) be brought before
the TMC for consideration and a written response. At that time we were
advised that the appropriate protocol was to address our concerns to TAMWG so
that TAMWG could forward to the TMC our letter together with its own
recommendations on the subjects covered by our letter. That seemed
logical at the time. However, we have recently been informed that some
interests may take the odd position that TMC does not owe us a written response
because our letter happened to be addressed to TAMWG with cc to TMC, rather
than the other way around. We believe that TMC should directly respond to
the points of concern in our March 14 letter. TRGA is not only a
stakeholder in the process, but represents more hours of observation on the affected
river reaches than all other stakeholders combined.</p><p class="MsoNormal">It is our understanding that a Phase 1 review is being
completed, but that Phase 2 mainstem projects are already being designed for
implementation beginning in 2012, prior to the completion of the Phase 1
review.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We vigorously object to both
the design and construction of additional mainstem projects in 2012 prior to
completion of the Phase 1 review.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We
also write to provide you with our recommendations regarding the Phase 1
review.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We will not reiterate the objections contained in our March
letters, but our observations of the Trinity River as a result of this year’s
historic 11,000 cfs fishery flow strengthens our objections to additional
ill-designed mainstem “restoration” projects until the Phase 1 review has been
completed.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Numerous side channels constructed
in the Trinity River prior to and since the 2000 Trinity Record of Decision
(Trinity ROD) have completely failed<a style="mso-footnote-id:ftn2" href="x-msg://54/#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character:footnote"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman";

the river near Lewiston over the past few years have continued to overwhelm
approximately twenty significant adult fish holding/staging pools in the river

with no scouring of additional pools to replace them.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We object to public statements made by TRRP
staff that the Guides have observed formation of significant new pools from the
high flows.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>There have been significant
negative environmental consequences of the TRRP’s actions that have not been
adequately analyzed in your programmatic or site-specific environmental
documents and we can no longer idly stand by.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Our observation is that the 11,000 cfs flow was able to
mobilize existing gravels to a much greater extent than previous high flows and
it clearly negates the need to inject any additional spawning gravel.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>This should be evaluated in the Phase 1 review
prior to implementation of new projects with gravel injection.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We understand that a pool depth survey is being completed by
a consultant, which we support.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We
recommend that the results of the pool depth survey be incorporated into the
Phase 1 review to determine if the reduction in pool volumes and depths for
adult fish may now be the limiting factor for salmon in the Trinity River
instead of juvenile rearing habitat.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Is
the lack of pools causing crowding, increased predation and disease of fish at Lewiston
Dam?</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We also request that the Phase 1 review determine how the
mainstem “restoration” projects will affect Coho and steelhead production?<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Since Coho and steelhead largely spawn and
rear in tributaries, does the mainstem work that impacts adult steelhead and
Coho staging areas adversely impact their success in getting to tributary
spawning grounds in good condition?</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We also recommend that the Phase 1 review consider the fact
that huge volumes of spawning gravel already exist within the mainstem channel from
tributaries and years of inadequate flows, thereby negating the need to inject
additional gravels in the river to create habitat.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The huge volumes of spawning gravel present
in the river became apparent following the high flow this year.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We request that upon issuance of the draft Phase 1 Report,
but prior to completion of the final Report, a public hearing be held by your
Science Advisory Board to present the draft findings of the consultants to
accept public testimony and respond to questions on the report.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Failure to incorporate an open public process
would be indicative to us that the Phase 1 Report is not independent science,
but instead a foregone conclusion and justification to continue with the failed
restoration policies of the past.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The failure of so many side channels constructed by the
Trinity River Restoration Program in recent years casts significant doubt on
the professional judgment of the mainstem project Design Team.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Our conversations with various Design Team
members indicates that after a decade of project designs, there is hardly
consensus or unanimity about the appropriate course of action for future
mainstem projects and nobody is accepting responsibility for obvious failures. </p><p class="MsoNormal">We also find that relations between various agency and
tribal members are poor with a great deal of mistrust and personal animosity,
which has been documented in reports by independent consultants and program
participants.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>This does not reflect well
upon the Trinity River Restoration Program’s so-called “Adaptive Management”
approach and “interagency cooperation.”<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">
</span>It points to a need for significant change in the management structure
of the TRRP that is the subject of other correspondence.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Despite the clear failures related to side channels and pool
filling, the TRRP’s determination to proceed with additional projects in 2012
prior to completion of the Phase 1 review shows an abject disregard for the
public that is increasingly concerned about the TRRP’s actions.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We strongly support restoration of the
Trinity River, but the observations of our fishing guides formed by many
thousands of hours on the river over a period of many years conflicts greatly
with the “science” behind the TRRP.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We
believe that completion of the Phase 1 review prior to design and
implementation of new projects is the prudent thing to do and is required as
part of the Record of Decision.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We strongly object to both the design and construction of
additional mainstem projects prior to completion of the Phase 1 review.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Design and completion of new projects prior to
the Phase 1 Review is a waste of tax dollars and cannot be justified.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The TRRP continues to ignore public opinion
and we find ourselves in the position of having no other option but to ask
Congress and the Administration to eliminate funding for these mainstem
projects until there is a truly independent scientific review of your actions.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Absent a change of policy direction by the TRRP, we have no
choice but to do everything we can to ensure that the TRRP does no further harm
to the Trinity River and its fisheries.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">
</span>We intend to dissect your environmental documents and vigorously oppose
the issuance of permits for additional mainstem projects until such time as the
Phase 1 Review is complete and the public is given a real voice in the
direction of the Trinity River Restoration Program.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Meanwhile, we are committed to educate the
public that many of the mainstem projects are an abject failure and should not
proceed as planned until completion of a review as required by the Trinity ROD.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We look forward
to the TMC’s written response.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions or comments about this letter,
