- Title
Biden Has a Chance to Oversee Biggest River Restoration Project in U.S. History.
- Authors
KOBER, AMY SOUERS
- Abstract
But salmon runs in the Columbia and Snake Rivers are in trouble, in large part because of the damage to their natural habitat by hydropower dams. The four lower Snake River dams not only interrupt the free-flowing water but also kill "millions of Chinook juveniles" as the salmon attempt to make their way to the ocean. No matter which proposal ultimately gains traction, American Rivers and other salmon advocates believe that we need meaningful immediate action and funding to remove the lower Snake dams and replace their benefits.
