Action:
The restrictions implemented on the Washougal River in mid-July due to high water temperatures have been lifted and regulations will revert back to permanent rules.
Effective Dates:
Immediately
Species affected:
All species including salmon and steelhead
Location:
Washougal River from the mouth upstream to the Salmon Falls Bridge
Reason for action:
