Foster Coulee cut off and the Columbia River then discharged through Moses Coulee. Foster Coulee has been studied as a potential pumped-storage hydroelectricity site. The coulee would be dammed and approximately 500 MW generation capacity installed, exploiting the c. difference in elevation between the new reservoir and the existing Banks Lake. Banks Lake is in turn created by pumping water uphill from the Columbia River at the Grand Coulee Dam. The Washington ground squirrel, a candidate for U.S. Endangered Species Act listing, inhabits Foster Coulee. Foster Coulee Foster Coulee is a coulee in Douglas County, Washington. Like the larger Moses Coulee nearby,
Grand Coulee volume of water flowing out of the upper coulee. The distribution begins in the uncanyoned basin below Dry Falls and expanded to over a before reaching Quincy Basin. One cataract (Unnamed Coulee) is high and had three alcoves over more than a . There is no channel as the water arrived in a broad sheet. The gravel deposits of Quincy Basin represent only a third or a fourth of the estimated 11 cubic miles of rock excavated from the Grand Coulee and its smaller other related coulees (Dry, Long Lake, Jasper, Lenore, and Unnamed). Most of the debris was carried
