Klamath River Dam removal: One group backs out to push another plan

As the debate over Dam removals on the Klamath River continues one group has dropped out saying the proposed plan is not good enough and they can no longer support it.  The "North Coast Enviromental Center" has backed out of the the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement (KBRA) claiming that it does not go far enough in compelling dam owners PacifiCorp and the Federal Government to take immediate action.  The group also does not support other parts of the agreement including allowing commercial agriculture on 22,000 Acres of National Wildlife Refuge. 

Backing out of the current agreement the "North Coast Environmental Center" has joined with "Water Watch" and "Oregon Wild" to form the "Klamath Conservation Partners" in hopes of promoting more immediate dam removal and better fish protection.

The Klamath River currently has 6 dams on it.  The main focus on Dam Removal currently is on JC Boyle Dam, which is the dam that controls water flows on the popular upper Klamath River rafting section.  We operate our two and three day Klamath River Rafting trips on the Lower Klamath River which would not be directly impacted by the removal on JC Boyle.  The Lower Klamath River near Happy Camp California is a beautiful section of river with different areas perfect for both the beginner family over-night or the big water class IV adventure trip.  For whatever rafting experience you are looking for the Klamath River probably has it.
