16 MAIL TRIBUNE, MeHor. Or. A Sunday, Dec 13, 1959 'Middle Ground' Suggested for River Problems Portland - (LTD - Federal Power Commission Examiner Francis Hall suggested strong ly Friday that "there is a mid dle ground" between fish arid power interests on the Des chutes river. His statement cam as a two-week hearing into Port land General Electric com pany's application for a li cense to build Round Butte dam on the Deschutes wai drawing to a close. The state fish commission has recommended that a stream flow of 5,000 cubic at Round Butte to protect fish life and recreation. ' However, PGE engineers say the river might have to be lowered to 3,000 cubic feet per second in April, 3,500 in May and 4,000 in June. Water Flow Study Hall suggested that should a license to build Round Butte be granted PGE, this water flow problem could be given further consideration while the dam was slowly getting into operation. Round Butte would take al most three years to construct. Hall said the flow might be equalized to 3,500 cubic feet per second during the three low months and pointed out that water needs for the dam would not be at a maximum as the dam got into operation. , He asked lawyers on both sides to consider this as they filed their briefs with FPC.
