Yreka, Calif. — After nearly seven hours of
discussion, questions and public comment, the Siskiyou
County Board of Supervisors voted to reject the Klamath
Basin Restoration and Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement
agreements and to not sign either document.
The vote, which was met with cheers from some in the
audience, was four to one, with District 2 Supervisor Ed
Valenzuela voting in line with his position that the county
should sign both documents and stay within the processes
outlined in each.
There were a number of public comments urging the board to
sign the documents, to not sign, or to wait and see how the
situation plays out. Those comments, along with the board’s
interaction with the representatives from government
agencies and PacifiCorp, will be covered in the Siskiyou
Daily News.
