The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

DAYTON – The WDFW will host a public meeting to provide progress updates on implementation actions to improve conditions within the Tucannon River floodplain from 4-6 p.m. on Oct. 25 at the Columbia County Fairgrounds Youth Building.

The Floodplain Management Plan focuses on improving the Tucannon lakes, restoring and enhancing habitat in the floodplain, burying the powerline between the Tucannon Fish Hatchery and Camp Wooten, and relocating the campgrounds out of the floodplain (which has already been completed.)
