The City of White Salmon is going to move forward with a study of withdrawing water from the White Salmon River during low flow months for Buck Creek. Mayor David Poucher says two environmental groups in favor of the plan have committed $265,000 to do the study, but he said he can’t name the groups until details are finalized. Poucher says they are developing a partnership to look at the concept. He adds the withdrawal could be advantageous to salmon runs by taking out water at a lower point, and would give the City a much stronger water flow.
