The Washington state House of Representatives approved a bill authored by 17th District Representative Kevin Waters that would improve the state’s efforts to remove fish barriers.  Taking the idea from the state’s Adopt-a-Highway program, Waters has proposed using private donations for fish barrier removal.  House Bill 2045 would have the Recreation and Conservation Office keep a list of fish barrier removal projects for donations.  Donors giving more than $10,000 would get a sign at the location with their name.  A $100,000 donation would prompt a plaque signed by the governor.  Waters’ “Adopt-a-Fish Barrier” bill passed the House 95-2, and is now headed to the Senate.
