The result: about 68,000 dead adult salmon. The fish kill led to a decade of suffering in California and Oregon’s fish-dependent communities, which rely on the Klamath run. Low runs of Klamath Salmon led to congressionally declare economic disasters. It also lead years where there was not enough salmon to support Tribal ceremonies, let alone subsistence fishing.

In 2010 PacifiCorp committed to taking out their antiquated dams to aid salmon. The actions of Tribal people, and the assertion of water and fishing rights by Tribal governments, have been motivators for all of these actions.</p><p style="margin-top: 7px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.4em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.3em; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); ">This year, as a result of good ocean conditions and salmon action, an estimated 378,000 salmon came up the Klamath River. These salmon lead to a boom for coastal fishing communities in a poor economy, and a large salmon allotment for struggling Klamath River Tribes. This run was facing conditions similar to 2002 until the government heeded the advice of Tribes, fishermen and scientists and allocated more water to avoid another fish kill. As we enjoy the fruits of our victories let us remember the fish that died in 2002, and all those who have fought for the salmon before and since. There is no guarantee we will see more years like this unless we stay committed to restoration, increased flows and the preservation of Tribal rights on the Klamath and Trinity rivers.</p><p style="margin-top: 7px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.4em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.3em; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); ">Back steps like Governor Brown’s proposed peripheral tunnels and Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP), which aim to bring more of Northern California’s water to Southern California, threaten the Trinity and Klamath River flows. The Trinity is the only out-of-basin watershed imported into the BDCP and Sacramento Valley. It is also the largest and cleanest watershed that enters the Klamath. The tunnel proposal could increase the demand to send the Trinity’s water to Southern California, reversing of the biggest win the Klamath salmon have seen, the decision to restore the Trinity River. Unfortunately it was not until after the 2002 fish kill that a thirty-year struggles for the Trinity’s water was resolved and 48% of historical flows were returned to the river. (Up to 90 percent of the river had been diverted south.) This water was secured due to language in the 2000 Trinity Record of Decisions that provides for a restored fishery for subsistence use. It is Tribal fishing and water rights that created this mandate.</p><p style="margin-top: 7px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.4em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.3em; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); ">It is also essential to salmon survival that Buffett’s PacifiCorp stands by its promise to take out the Klamath dams and stop stalling with the proposed Klamath settlement legislation. Dam relicensing, which occurs every fifty years provides an opportunity to surrender the dams’ though public processes. This could have happened years ago; instead dam removal is stalled by expensive legislation that compromises flow for salmon and Indian water rights. This legislation set a dangerous precedent by assuring the government will not protect water rights for Tribes that do not sign the settlement legislation The assertion of Tribal water rights and sovereignty is key not only to salmon recovery, but also the preservation of Native cultures, and therefore this legislation is unacceptable.</p><p style="margin-top: 7px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.4em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.3em; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); ">The communities that depend on salmon cannot let bureaucracy and inaction kill the Klamath Salmon and return us to 2002.
