Good to see president support breaching dams

Series: Letters to the Editor | Story 28

Nice to see Prez Biden supporting salmon, treaty rights and dam breaching.

As you may or may not know, the four Lower Snake River dams were made to be breached as they are half earthen and half concrete. Maybe those who put them in had the forethought to think that we wouldn’t be here with an archaic form of hydro power generation and be more advanced than we are with alternative forms of energy 50 years later.

We can’t live in the past and have to move ahead and progress to new and better ways of power generation.
