The largest dam removal project in the U.S. | The Evergreen | OPB

On the Oregon-California border, four Klamath River dams are coming out in the country’s largest dam removal project. It will reopen hundreds of miles of salmon habitat and restore thousands of acres of land, some of which could be returned to Native American tribes. It’s giving some along the river new hope - and leaving others, like farmers, uncertain about their future. OPB science editor and reporter Cassandra Profita brings us the history behind the dam removal project: why the dams were created in the first place, water politics of the region and how residents of the basin are waiting to see how the dam removals will reshape the landscape.
