Seattle s Skagit River dams hurt salmon, orcas and Native American culture, agencies say

Seattle’s Skagit River dams hurt salmon, orcas and Native American culture, agencies say A new KING 5 investigation Skagit, River of Light and Loss reveals cost-effective electricity generated for the city of Seattle comes at a price. Author: Susannah Frame Updated: 12:54 PM PST February 20, 2021 Residents of Seattle enjoy some of the most affordable electricity in the country, but the city-owned utility that generates that power is accused of harnessing cost-effective electricity on the backs of Puget Sound salmon, killer whales and the way of life for Native American tribes in the Skagit Valley, a KING 5 investigation found. “The [city of Seattle has] taken a lot from this tribe for the last 100 years, and the tribe is not going to take it anymore, said Scott Schuyler, natural resources director of the Upper Skagit Indian Tribe, based in Sedro-Woolley. The status quo is not working, and we will not allow it to continue.

Poultry flock owners alerted to avian flu threat

USDA ARS Washington State Department of Agriculture to host webinar Feb. 23 on how to protect flocks. Feb 09, 2021 The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) will offer a free webinar to help poultry owners protect their birds from avian influenza as cases continue to increase worldwide. The World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) reports ongoing outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), or bird flu, in 26 countries across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. HPAI can spread rapidly and kill entire flocks. The USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service recently reported the current rates of HPAI in Asia and Europe are similar to the rates in 2014-2015, when HPAI was identified in the U.S., including Washington State, and thousands of birds had to be euthanized to contain the disease. This pattern suggests the risk of HPAI in the U.S. is elevated this year.
