The Walla Walla District,
US Army Corps of Engi

No Significant Impact for

The decision was reached
after reviewing possible im

environment and comments
received from interested
agencies, organizations and
individuals, reports Ken
Gardner of the Walla Walla
Public Affairs office.
The proposed hatchery is
part of the Lower Snake River

in 1976. The plan includes
programs to compensate for
fish and wildlife habitat losses
caused by construction of four
dams on the Snake River in
