The Tsilhqot91裸聊视频檌n National Government says river conditions are 91裸聊视频渟lowly improving91裸聊视频� after the massive landslide that temporarily dammed the Chilcotin River last month, but salmon spawning activity is being delayed.
An update from the Tsilhqot91裸聊视频檌n emergency salmon task force says debris and sediment from the slide are 91裸聊视频渄ramatically91裸聊视频� impacting sockeye and Chinook salmon spawning runs.
The task force91裸聊视频檚 latest situation report says observations from a helicopter show the river flow is 91裸聊视频渆vening out,91裸聊视频� and murky conditions are getting better, though the flow is still much higher than normal.
The report says the improving conditions are only part of a 91裸聊视频渃omplex puzzle,91裸聊视频� and fish likely still lack an 91裸聊视频渦nimpeded91裸聊视频� path at the slide site.
It says fish monitoring equipment has only detected 31 Chinook and 16 sockeye passing through the slide site at a time when thousands of sockeye should be moving through.
The task force says some fish populations made it through to their spawning grounds before the slide, and others make their runs later in the year.
It says it91裸聊视频檚 hoped fish make it past the slide zone without intervention 91裸聊视频渦nless absolutely necessary.91裸聊视频�
