<br />Since the FERC license was terminated, Mr. Eric Jacobson has contacted Congressman <br />McInnis and asked for intervention. Congressman McInnis has indicated to Mr. Jacobson that he <br />would support special legislation provided that a fish passage alternative can be identified which <br />is compatible with the hydroelectric project. <br /> <br />Reclamation published a revised draft Environmental Assessment on July 26, 2002. A <br />hydropower compatible alternative was identified in the EA and our understanding is that Mr. <br />Jacobson is pursuing his project. The Recovery Program's Biology Committee asked <br />Reclamation to assess the viability of constructing a selective passage at this site, <br /> <br />Reclamation's Technical Service Center in Denver also published Technical <br />Memorandum No, P2-83 13-2, Stability Analysis for Price-Stubb Dam Removal, in May 2002, <br />The report was a result of the landslide stability analysis that was performed to determine if dam <br />removal would create any instability in the landslide adjacent to the dam, The analysis found that <br />dam removal "appears to have a stabilizing effect on the stability of the landslide even if river <br />scour should occur." The text of this report (without figures and appendices) is available upon <br />request to Pat Nelson. <br /> <br />VII. Recommendations: <br /> <br />After determining whether or not the passage will be selective, Reclamation will finalize <br />the EA and begin securing necessary land interests. <br /> <br />VIII, Project Status: Ongoing <br /> <br />IX.
