Oregon and California senators introduced legislation this week that will cement into law the Upper Klamath Basin Comprehensive Agreement, signed last month.
The Senate bill gives Congressional approval to the Upper Basin Agreement, authorizing the Department of the Interior to increase stream flows into Upper Klamath Lake, improve and protect riparian areas along the river corridor, and restore access to more than 400 miles of spawning and rearing habitat for salmon and steelhead through the removal of four dams on the mainstem Klamath.
CalTrout is a signatory to the agreements.
