Comments sought on Snake River water study 

Snake River Area of Critical Environmental Concern, Idaho

BLM

The Bureau of Reclamation and the Washington State Department of Ecology are seeking comment on the draft lower Snake River Supply Replacement Study.

The study intends to obtain an understanding of current water supply and irrigation, municipal and industrial uses near the four lower Snake River dams. In addition, the study aims to evaluate impacts to water delivery if Congress authorized breach of the dams, and analyze potential solutions for water supply replacement and implementation considerations.
