Description

In June, 2016, the Snohomish County Public Utility District began a project to remove the sluiceway of the Sultan River dam in order to improve salmon passage. The project was completed in October and within a few weeks coho redds were spotted upriver of the dam, a part of the river they had not reached in almost 90 years.
