     Publication Name   Estimate of the Size of the Salmon and Steelhead Trout Populations of the Upper Columbia River,

                                 1872-1939.  The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation. Et Al, -v- The United States of America

                         ID #   386

                   Authors   Koch, David L.

       Publication Date   1976

            Produced By   Colville Confederated Tribes

                Summary   The scope of this paper is to define and estimate the size of the salmon and steelhead trout populations that

                                 were or would have been available to the Colville Confederated Tribes during the years 1872-1939.  The

                                 starting and ending years are significant as 1872 is the year in which the Colville Indian Reservation was

                                 established and 1939 is the year in which Grand Coulee Dam totally eliminated the salmon and steelhead

                                 from spawning and rearing areas in some 1140 miles of streams.

                                

                                 The limits of the study are the Okanogan River to the west, the Columbia River to the south and east, and

                                 the international border with Canada to the north.
