The G rand Ronde lan guage program also utilizes the master-apprentice model, and all students leave the pre school level with a knowledge o f the language. They also hope to eventu ally educate all o f their stu dents in their community in order to retain fluency in their native language. Dams ----- (Continued from page 1) However, the tribes and P G E will restore passage with an in novative system expected to be operating by the end o f 2009. Currently, juvenile salmon and steelhead can’t find their way downstream because o f turns in the current o f the upper reser voir. The solution to this problem will be a 273-foot high under water tower that will take in m o st o f the su rface w ater, drawing the fish to a collection system that will send them be low the dams.

Bud Lane from the Siletz lan guage program said their pro gram is relatively new— they were developed in 2003. Before developing classes, they had to develop a method o f teaching the Athabaskan lan guage. Because it utilizes sev eral different dialects, those with the Siletz language program first had to standardize the alphabet. Now they are teaching classes and working to revitalize the lan guage in the Siletz community, Lane said. They also connect their lan guage with cultural activities, and spoke o f trips with students to gather mussels as well as classes regarding basket and regalia making. The local high school features that arrive at the passage facil ity will safely transit into the lower Deschutes. Species to be reintroduced above the dams include summer steelhead (a federally listed threatened species), and spring Chinook salmon. Resident ko- kanee should naturally convert to sockeye salmon as they head downstream. The new system will reopen 226 miles o f streams above the dams to fish migration while al lowing continued production o f low-cost, renewable hydroelec tric power.
