habitat and spawning) but the upriver source in Lewiston is blocked by the dam. The TRRP has been charged with restoring the functioning river and the fish, but recent gravel monitoring has shown that gravel isn't moving to all the places where it is needed.
To remedy this, the TRRP is proposing to add gravel at new locations where it is needed. </span></div>
