Klamath Dam Removals Gain Federal Energy Agency Staff Final OK
Klamath Dam Removals Gain Federal Energy Agency Staff Final OK
Abstract
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff recommended the approval of the license to surrender, decommission and remove the four dams–three in northern California and one in southern Oregon. Native American groups, such as the Yurok and Karuk Tribes, have long sought the removal of the dams to restore dwindling fishing stocks. The project will require a federal Clean Water Act permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and federal historic preservation approval.
