As work continues on the environmental impact statement for a potential replacement of the Hood River-White Salmon Interstate Bridge, the question of how to fund the next phase of that project begins to crop up.  Port of Hood River Executive Director Michael McElwee says that next phase could cost up to 25 million dollars if a significant level of engineering was done, or it could be four to five million dollars to get to the point where a federal grant application could be prepared.  The EIS record of decision is expected at the end of 2020.
