| Title | Fish Ladder Approach Trestle |
| Description | Construction in progress on approach trestle to the middle fish trap at Rock Island Dam. This work was under Specifications No. 795 and contract with Kern and Kibbe. In a 1938 report by B.M. Brennan, director of the Department of Fisheries he detailed the plans for a project to establish salmon hatcheries on the Wenatchee River. He reported this Central Washington Upper Columbia River Salmon Conservation Project would cost an estimated 2.6 million to be paid from Grand Coulee Construction Funds and would involve trapping fish at Rock Island Dam and transporting them below Coulee Dam and eventually to the Leavenworth fish hatchery. |
