AW provides comment on the four lower dams on the Klamath River that continue to have a devastating impact on salmon populations. We have formally requested a full environmental review of removing all four dams on the Klamath River so all stakeholders can make an informed decision regarding the fate of the Klamath River.

September 13th through 17th, 2002 American Whitewater conducted Whitewater Controlled Flow Studies on two reaches of the Klamath River in Oregon: the sixteen-mile Class IV Hell's Corner Reach and the five-mile Class IV reach between the Dam and powerhouse known as the JC Boyle bypass. The studies are part of the relicensing process for PacifiCorp's Klamath River Hydropower Project, FERC No. 2082. The license for the Klamath project expires in 2006.
