US plans renegotiating Columbia River Treaty (CRT) payments, and more water released for fish and irrigation, but that reduces power generated, and costs millions, raising power rates. Northwest Council and Congressman Hastings ask: “How much power to trade off for fish? But a NEW CRT Option #4 in this book could avoid payment and power vs. fish disputes , by reviving archived projects, shelved in 1961 due to a power glut .Thus, fish and irrigation water can be DOUBLED, while producing MORE power, at bargain inflation proof price over 30 years, saving the US $7.5 Billion and BC.$ 4.5 Billion
