Darren Young, chief journeyman operator for Avista, told the meeting that crews are removing rock and other debris that accumulates behind a nearby dam and expected to conclude the work "on the 30 first of this month." He said crews planned to remove equipment on the 3rd and the 4th and that a large crane near the water would remain in place until then.

Young said the material picked out from behind the dam is sent downstream "for fish habitat." He described the annual work as routine maintenance tied to river flows that carry rock and debris against the dam. For information on any road closures related to the work, Young directed listeners to spokanecity.org. The transcript did not specify which dam or exact locations of closures.

No formal actions, votes or policy decisions were recorded in the transcript excerpt. The remarks in the meeting were informational updates from Avista staff about ongoing maintenance activity and short-term equipment staging.
