In a complaint filed with the US Office of the Special Counsel on October 29, California biologist Michael Kelly alleges that his agency, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), failed to follow its own procedures for evaluating the impact of a water management plan on endangered species in the Klamath River Basin. If true, the failure would be a violation of the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Since the US Bureau of Reclamation's water management plan was put into effect in September, 30,000 salmon have died in the Klamath River.
