Klamath Falls Herald and News
Irrigation district
considers power project
Good idea x 150
Yes, this little hydro project should be built and a 150 more like it. That would provide for the hydropower necessary to replace that which will be torn out by the dam removal/Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement implementation. Then the Klamath Water Users Association/Klamath Water and Power Authority Board could pay for their groups’ own power increases instead of asking PacifiCorp to reduce the federal project’s power rates at the expense of the off-Project users and regular ratepayers.
Acting positively
This is soooooo refreshing. With PacifiCorp being forced to remove the dams, this kind of thinking is what will propel the Klamath Basin for the future. It is time to let go of all the negative talk and get on board.
CommonSense
What a great idea. I am pleased to see this sort of thinking. Falling water is a great source of clean, renewable power. Much better than building all those ugly wind turbines, burning coal, or covering the earth in solar panels. How about we take this concept to next level and develop some the hydropower resources on the Klamath River?
