Spencer, Chief In the first portion of the biennium the limited personnel of the bureau was very busy in preparing plans and carrying on the required construction to fulfill the commission's extensive plan of additions and improvements. Due to the United States defense program which was later followed by the war and attendant difficulties as regards materials there was a lessening of construction in the latter period. In addition to this the bureau took care of the necessary work on fishways, fish screens and other stream improvement projects. For the biennium there were 118 dams inspected to see what adverse affect, if any, these dams had on the required free movement of fish. Where it appeared that remedial measures were needed, the ovraers of these dams or obstructions were contacted and alterations or improvements were brought about. Ten fishways were repaired or replaced, this being necessary as the structures had been damaged by high waters or other causes. Where the dam was without a fishway and one was needed to permit fish an uninterrupted passage a survey was made and plans prepared for the installation of the required fishway by the owner of the dam. As a result of these surveys and negotiations eight new fishways were installed. The work of replacing fish screens in accordance with commission policy continued to the summer of 1941, when 55 installations had been. Fig. i:). at Silver Lake.
