Klamath Project Operations Biological Assessment Coho Salmon: Effects of the Proposed Action on Coho Salmon IGD has a diminishing ability to regulate main stem flow and temperature the further you go downstream. As mentioned earlier, modeling suggests that from approximately the Scott River downstream to the mouth of the Klamath River, tributary inputs and meteorological conditions are the primary temperature drivers throughout the year. During the critical summer months, monthly average discharge from IGD contributions to Klamath River flows, measured at Orleans (river mile 58 from 1962 to 1991), is less than 20 percent in May and June (Figure 3, p. 88, NMFS 2002 BO). The Trinity River (river mile 43) is the major flow and temperature driver for the main stem of the Klamath River within this reach (see Figure 3-16). Consequently, the ability to control temperature in the lower Klamath River through flow management at IGD is limited due to travel time downstream of the dam, the influence of local meteorological conditions, and flow accretions from tributary sources The Proposed Action, through flow, would not be expected to significantly affect the salmon habitat quantity or quality within the main stem or the tributaries of the lower Klamath River. 254
