Klamath River dam removal talks moving along
California officials expect final agreement in coming weeks
Negotiations on a document that could lead to
removal of four Klamath River hydropower dams
are forging ahead and could be completed in
coming weeks.
Kirk Miller, deputy secretary and general counsel for the California Resources Agency, and Pablo Arroyave, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation’s assistant regional director, said those involved in the discussions, including PacifiCorp, would meet in Klamath Falls next week.
The final agreement will be based on an agreement in principle announced last November.
“I think the parties at the table will reach a dam removal agreement,” Miller said. “We do anticipate concluding the final agreement shortly.”
