Legislation entitled the Salmon Economic Analysis and Planning Act (SEAPA—H.R. 1507) has been introduced in Congress. SEAPA would authorize independent studies form the National Academy of Sciences and Government Accountability Office to provide Congress with up-to-date information to make timely decisions regarding the future of the Columbia-Snake River Basin salmon recovery. SEAPA seeks a thorough analysis of salmon recovery measures including dam breaching in order to develop a complete picture of what’s necessary to protect and restore salmon and steelhead populations.
