<title>On the Salmon River, a time of healing or an eco-disaster?</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/14349/20090915/on-the-salmon-river-a-time-of-healing-or-an-eco-disaster</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 15, 2009) This summer, a private contractor ripped out a century-old dam on the Salmon River in northern Franklin County.  State officials said the structure was deteriorating and posed a safety hazard.  The town of Fort Covington decided to remove the dam, rather than pay for costly repairs.  Green groups say the project will eventually restore crucial fish and bird habitat. But two months after the work was done, a massive plug of silt and sand still clogs the river.  As Brian Mann reports, many locals worry that the Salmon River could be permanently damaged.

<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 7, 2006) A school prayer issue at a predominantly Mohawk school is headed to federal court despite a compromise offered this week.

<title>Mohawk &quot;Prayer&quot; Banned in Schools</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/6183/20050919/mohawk-quot-prayer-quot-banned-in-schools</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 19, 2005) A federal judge ruled last week that reciting the pledge of allegiance in public schools was unconstitutional. Meanwhile, here at home, another legal battle is waging over a different morning recital in the classroom.  The Salmon River School District banned a traditional Mohawk recitation of thanksgiving. They say it&apos;s a prayer and doesn&apos;t belong on school time. Parents are suing, saying their &quot;morning message&quot; is not a prayer at all. Gregory Warner reports.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 19, 2004) An ice jam on the Salmon River triggered a flood through the weekend, forcing residents in Malone to evacuate at least eight homes.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 23, 2003) Flyfishing is one of those pastimes that outsiders view with a kind of awe—art, dance and science combine to lay a line and a tiny twist of feathers and hair along the water just right to tease a fish.  New York&apos;s flyfishing season runs through the middle of October.  Last fall, Todd Moe pulled on some waders and tried his hand.
