We are hopeful that this legislation will finally bring an end to more than a century of challenging times in our community. People came together from all corners of the basin to hammer out these agreements, and the give and take has not always been easy. We are grateful to
Senator Wyden, Senator Merkley, Senator Feinstein and Senator Boxer for sponsoring this important legislation. Similarly, Governor Kitzhaber and other leaders who have supported our local process have given all basin residents a reason to hope for a brighter future here for our children, our grandchildren, and the fish and wildlife that rely on this region’s natural resources for survival.”</div><div style="margin-top:1em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:1em;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-color:initial;outline-width:0px;outline-color:initial;font-size:16px;vertical-align:baseline;font:inherit;" class="yiv9047085640">The bill and restoration efforts look to create more than 4,000 jobs to be created or preserved including those in

She said the bill directs the Secretary to cut off senior water rights of the tribe to Klamath River water and fish in California in favor of water diversions for irrigation in Oregon. “Fish need water. The little water we get under this bill will jeopardize on
going fishery restoration in the Klamath and Trinity Rivers,” said Chairwoman Masten.</div><div style="margin-top:1em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:1em;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-color:initial;outline-width:0px;outline-color:initial;font-size:16px;vertical-align:baseline;font:inherit;" class="yiv9047085640">For over 20 years, the Hoopa Valley Tribe has worked to restore salmon of the Trinity River, the Klamath’s largest tributary, and in 1992 obtained legislation mandating that the fishery restoration work be completed. That restoration work is jeopardized by the Klamath Agreements and the proposed legislation, Fisheries Department Director, Michael Orcutt, pointed out. “We are optimistic that Congress will not approve these
agreements at the expense of our treaty rights,” said Michael Orcutt.</div><br class="yiv9047085640" style=""><address style="margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;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-color:initial;outline-width:0px;outline-color:initial;font-size:16px;vertical-align:baseline;font:inherit;" class="yiv9047085640">Read more at<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2014/06/01/new-klamath-water-bill-has-one-opponent-hoopa-valley-tribe-155108?page=0%2C1"
