| Description: | Hemlock Dam was constructed in 1935 to generate hydropower for the USFS Wind River Ranger District. The dam was later used for irrigation water for the Wind River Nursery. The Gifford Pinchot National Forest proposes to remove Hemlock Dam, and to restore the Trout Creek channel in the area that is now occupied by the dam and reservoir. Trout Creek supports Lower Columbia River Steelhead that were listed as Threatened in 1998 and the proposed action will improve upstream and downstream fish passage. In addition navigational passage will be restored. | |||
