The Bonneville Power Administration has announced that it will spend more on modernizing its grid and less on salmon recovery.

The agency must find $40 million in cuts from the $300 million it spends annually on fish and wildlife. Those savings are needed to make up for the power generation the agency believes it will lose due to a federal judge’s latest order on salmon migration issues.
