What if the Snake River worked for everyone? |
|
The Working Snake River (WSR) Project promotes a thoughtful, comprehensive solution to restore wild Snake River salmon that benefits farmers, fishermen, local communities and the Inland Northwest economy.
Removing the four lower Snake River dams will restore more than 60 rapids and 30,000 acres of parklands, wildlife habitat and public access. Increased fishing, tourism and recreation along with transportation and energy investments will provide jobs, improve quality of life and expand local economic opportunities.
The project reaches out to businesses, sportsmen, farmers, conservationists and citizens committed to restoring eastern Washington's lower Snake River corridor and endangered wild salmon by replacing four aging and costly dams with modern transportation and clean energy alternatives.
Join us in supporting a solution to salmon recovery that benefits farmers, fishermen, local communities and the regional economy. Download the factsheet HERE or go to: www.workingsnakeriver.org
