Coordinated operation of Corps of Engineers' dams and reservoirs in the Columbia River Basin is part of the measures designed to halt and reverse the declines of threatened or endangered Columbia River Basin salmon and other declining fish species. The information provided below by the Corps of Engineers is used in that context by the Technical Management Team (TMT), an inter-agency technical group responsible for making recommendations on dam and reservoir operations. The Corps representative chairs the TMT.
