The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said it could make hydroelectric dams on Oregon 's Willamette River safe for endangered salmon.
The Corps started pressing forward over objections from fish advocates and power users who said the plan was costly and untested.
The new law, finalized on Jan. 4 , follows reporting from Oregon Public Broadcasting and ProPublica in 2023 .
NOAA proposed more than two dozen changes for the Corps , ranging from better monitoring of the species to altering the river flow to better accommodate migrating salmon.
The agency is still reviewing NOAA 's opinion and deciding what action to take.
Grand Ronde tribeswoman says she is encouraged that the latest developments on the Willamette pointed to a future where salmon and people could coexist.
