Statement of Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission Executive Director Paul Lumley on new Bonneville Power Administrator Bill Drummond:
“The Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission is pleased that the Bonneville Power Administration has chosen Bill Drummond as the agency’s new Administrator. Under Steve Wright’s administration we were able to establish a foundation of partnership and collaboration that recognized the tribes’ treaty fishing rights. We look forward to building on that foundation with Mr. Drummond and continue working on our mutual goal of rebuilding healthy and sustainable salmon populations throughout the Columbia Basin.”
