Kotek Advances Columbia Basin Restoration Initiative
(Salem, OR) -- Oregon Governor Tina Kotek is moving forward with Oregon's part of the Columbia Basin Restoration Initiative. The goal is to restore salmon and steelhead runs in the Columbia and Snake Rivers. Last December, the Biden Administration agreed to several parts of the plan. It calls for developing clean, reliable, and affordable replacement power before considering removal of Snake River dams. Kotek is telling state agencies to move forward with Oregon's commitments to the plan.
