Sacred Site To Be Restored In Clackamas County

(Portland, OR) -- A sacred site in Clackamas County is set to be restored. The burial site was north of US-26 near the Wildwood Recreation site and it was bulldozed by the U.S. Department of Transportation in 2008. As a result, tribal leaders of the Confederated Tribes and Bands of Yakama Nation and the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde sued the government. The case reached a settlement yesterday and the federal government agreed to re-plant native trees and to fund the reconstruction of the sacred stone altar that was destroyed. Tribal leaders says they're all excited to see the site restored.
