We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to announce... THE 4 KLAMATH RIVER HYDRODAMS ON THE OREGON/CALIFORNIA BORDER ARE COMPLETELY GONE!!! The majority of the Klamath River has been restored to a free-flowing river -- opening access to 400 miles of historic habitat for Chinook salmon, coho salmon, and many other critically depleted species. 🙌 🐟 🌱 There are several more years of work to do to restore the footprint of lands underneat the dam, but that is well under way. Thanks to Resource Environmental Solutions LLC, Kiewit, KLAMATH RIVER RENEWAL CORPORATION, Yurok Tribe, The Karuk Tribe, KLAMATH TRIBE, and all of the partners working so hard to get this done.
Tribes celebrate the end of the largest dam removal project in US history
