Deschutes fisheries workshop discussion on parasites

The Deschutes River Alliance recently posted that recent research from Oregon State University showed that juvenile spring chinook salmon in the Deschutes “have experienced significant risk of infection and disease” from the parasite ceratonave shasta. Of course, the DRA blamed the operation of the Selective Water Withdrawal tower in Lake Billy Chinook. The author of the study will be presenting at the upcoming Deschutes Fisheries Workshop and I encourage you to attend to get the data without spin. The workshop is on July 17 and anyone can attend if you register here.
