Might the tribes be interested in a check in lieu of lbs of fish flesh?

So far - no. As others have said, that hasn't worked out very well for them in the past.
Even if the tribes were OK with a check, Bonneville power would still have to spend millions to try to bring back the fish. Plenty of the fish they effect are threatened or endangered.
