<br />Congress has estabhshed a policy of
<br />concern for diminished fish and wild-
<br />life resources in the Missouri River
<br />Basin with the passage of certain pro-
<br />visions of the Water Resources Devel-
<br />opment Act of 1986. A precedent-set-
<br />ting approach for a fish and wildlife
<br />recovery program exists in the Colum-
<br />bia River basin. The era of dam con-
<br />struction and channelization is giving
<br />way to new visions of water sales,
<br />trans-basin diversions, and basin-wide
<br />integrated water resources manage-
<br />ment. The time for an innovative ap-
<br />proach to protect and enhance the orig-
<br />inal multi-purpose concept adopted for
<br />the Missouri River by the Pick-Sloan
<br />Plan is at hand.
