The Goal

To return the Columbia River watershed to a natural state. There are many aspects to this including but not limited to:

• Dam removal
• Habitat restoration
• Tributary improvements
• Irrigation improvements
• Green power generation

But all this with one main thing in mind, it’s not just about the environmentalist type actions. The things like dams that are lethal to fish also provide water, power, recreation, etc to the people that live in this region.

Where a dam provides positives and negatives, there’s an understanding that dam removal also has positives and negatives.

Therefore the goal is to advocate for the best outcome from a holistic viewpoint knowing that no outcome is going to make everyone happy.
