KRRC is part of a cooperative effort to re-establish the natural vitality of the Klamath River so that it can support all communities in the basin. Signatories of the amended KHSA, including the States of California and Oregon, local governments, Tribal Nations, dam owner PacifiCorp, irrigators, and several conservation and fishing groups, appointed KRRC to take ownership and oversee removal of four hydroelectric dams on the river. KRRC’s work is funded by PacifiCorp customer surcharges and California Proposition 1 water bond funds.</div><div style="margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 6px; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529175">KRRC’s job is to take ownership of four PacifiCorp dams — JC Boyle, Copco, No. 1 & 2, and Iron Gate — and then remove these dams, restore formerly inundated lands, and implement required mitigation measures in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. PacifiCorp will continue to operate the dams in the interim. Removal of the hydroelectric dams is the first crucial step to restore the health of the Klamath River and the communities that depend upon it. KRRC’s sole focus is to accomplish this first step.</div><div style="margin-top: 6px; display: inline; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529176">More information about KRRC and its mission can be found at the KRRC’s website: <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.klamathrenewal.org%2F&h=ATPH_v71nGU93e0DKqmcz06DAj6ugLg8nlOZ0835IqvfoP4zCuYRa2xKUosq8D9WI5f7-31t1FQZDppgf36OK5NfGM5DjEOZO4qvI-e_9Id4vM2OX_WMVY_gYoigglsJnSxRrBHcgsNlmGg4MLZSydbFzTJL1NX_0hc9bX4N2xJnMuaodjCdD26R8Unh3lzcom0fb2IY0IRbtyzHc49Oq6mWnpEB8n88FpXrRIB6CsWJWaOe4mlMIMaEqyNL748i24Nz-7uFaSMlhoG7XkaiTvs4FxYmQcZlB8omnWSs-gRzogHdwxMT" target="_blank" data-ft="{"tn":"-U"}" data-lynx-mode="origin" rel="nofollow" style="color: rgb(54, 88, 153); cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529177">www.klamathrenewal.org</a></div></div><div data-ft="{"tn":"H"}" style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529178"><div data-ft="{"tn":"H"}" style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529179"><div style="margin-top: 10px; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529180"><div style="font-family: inherit; position: relative;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529181"><div data-ft="{"tn":"E"}" style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529182"><a rel="theater" ajaxify="/YrekaNews/photos/a.239058659617087.1073741830.105157229673898/733479176841697/?type=3&size=787%2C896&fbid=733479176841697&source=13&player_origin=story_view" data-ploi="https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/26230403_733479176841697_231706278155365007_n.jpg?oh=856d48674058a6b4dcadbb9ee8c53704&oe=5AEBB9FE" href="https://www.facebook.com/YrekaNews/photos/a.239058659617087.1073741830.105157229673898/733479176841697/?type=3" data-render-location="permalink" data-ft="{"tn":"E"}" style="color: rgb(54, 88, 153); cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0470588) 0px 1px 1px; display: block; position: relative; font-family: inherit; width: 476px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529183"><div style="position: relative; overflow: hidden; font-family: inherit; width: 476px; min-height: 542px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529184"><img src="https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/p480x480/26230403_733479176841697_231706278155365007_n.jpg?oh=1e14b24cf86ccdc068ee52e61eab0c19&oe=5AF7DD34" alt="Image may contain: 1 person, smiling" width="477" height="542" style="border-width: 0px; min-height: 542px; position: relative; width: auto; left: 0px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529185" class="" data-id="894791a2-8663-78aa-4a3c-835c2e5f3e39"></div></a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529186"></div></div></div><div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 12px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529187"><form rel="async" method="post" data-ft="{"tn":"]"}" action="https://www.facebook.com/ajax/ufi/modify.php" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529188"><div style="margin-top: 12px; color: rgb(144, 148, 156); padding-bottom: 4px; position: relative; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529189"><div style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529190"><div style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529191"><div style="font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529192"><div style="clear: both; line-height: 16px; margin: 8px 12px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 8px; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529193"><div style="font-family: inherit;" dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529194"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/YrekaNews/posts/733479196841695?comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22O%22%7D" data-ft="{"tn":"O"}" data-comment-prelude-ref="action_link_bling" aria-label="1 like 5 shares" rel="ignore" style="color: inherit; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529195"><span style="margin-right: 8px; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529196">1 Like</span><span style="margin-right: 8px; font-family: inherit;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529197">5 Shares</span></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></form></div><div class="signature" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529022"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1516066870591_529028"><br></div></div></div></body></html>
