State May Bring Suit
Dn Oxbow . Fish Deaths
, Salem CPD Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton said
yesterday he was considering
the possibility of legal action
against Idaho Power company
for alleged destruction of sal
mon and steelhead at the
firm's Oxbow .dam site on the
Snake river. .
Thornton said that "from
my information it would ap
pear that the loss and damage
to fish was caused by the col
lapsing of the foundation of
the fish trap constructed on
the Oregon side of the river,
necessitating lowering the
normal flow in the main chan
nel of the river to about 2,000
cubic feet per second. As the
result of low flow the fish
were either trapped in pools
above the fish trap or they
perished below the . main,
coffer dam."
Concurrent Jurisdiction
Thornton said that from his
examination of legal authori
ties the state may be in a
position to bring action
against the power company
for destruction of fish. He
said both states have concur
rent jurisdiction on- the river
but that this could be solved
by Oregon and Idaho joining
as plaintiffs in either the state
or federal courts.
P. W. Schneider, Oregon
game director, ' said loss of
fish at the Oxbow site would
be felt for years to come. He
said at least 2000 chinook sal
mon and numerous steelhead
were lost during the change
over from the emergency
trapping and hauling opera
tions at the site to the regular
trapping facilities. The regu
lar trap is now back in opera
tion. . !

leave it up to the public to
decide whether Idaho Power
company or himself had given
the truth of what he .called
"the catastrophic fish loss" at
Oxbow. He said he . had re
ceived a reply from the presi
dent of Idaho Power saying
"facts do not justify or sup
port your intemperate tele
graphic statements."
Albert Day, Oregon Fish
commission director, said the
practice 'of killing male sal
mon and using the fish for
fingerling food was a well
established procedure. He ex
plained it in answer to a state
ment by Idaho Power which
said the practice "has re
ceived little attention and no
adverse comment." Day said
more male salmon than are
needed enter the hatchery
ponds and are killed to con
serve the oxygen supply.
Army engineers said the
1958 run of chinook passing
Bonneville dam on the Colum
bia was the highest since 1947,
the record year. The 1958
chinook run through Septem
