  • Effects of Dams on Native Americans in the Columbia River Basin Elliott
    Dammed Societies: Effects of Dams on Native Americans in the Columbia River Basin Elliott McGill Senior Capstone Project Faculty Advisors: Dr. Jamie Dolan, Dr. Jeremy Johnson, and Dr. David McCanna McGill 1 Abstract Since dam construction began in the New Deal Era, it has represented a dominance of humankind over nature. These massive structures have harnessed, collected, and distributed electricity from the rivers they hold back and allow humans to reap the benefits of that cycle. One of the areas where dams are particularly apparent is in the Columbia River Basin in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. While the dams in this region certainly have allowed the area to develop and build by using the electricity collected by these dams, they have also had several negative effects on the tribal people in the region who once fished the mighty Columbia during its populous salmon runs and relied on the salmon for nutritional, economic, and cultural reasons. This project seeks to examine the costs of human advancement when it comes to dams, and will do so by studying three dams located in the Columbia River Basin: The Bonneville Dam, The Dalles Dam, and The Grand Coulee Dam. These dams will be studied using Black’s Theory of Law as a framework to examine the manner in which law was applied to each case. The research finds that although the dams certainly provide a useful resource to the people of the region, it has had negative effects on the Native American people who depended on the river. McGill 2 Introduction When President Franklin D.

    BEFORE THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR MULTNOMAH COUNTY A Resolution regarding proposed) Interpretive Center Sites in the) RESOLUTION Columbia River Gorge National) #88-171 Scenic Area.) WHEREAS, on July 12, 1988 the Columbia River Gorge Commission adopted criteria for selection of an interpretive center in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area; and WHEREAS, the county established an advisory committee on October I, 1987 (Ordinance No. 561) to propose and review potential interpretive center sites within Multnomah County; and WHEREAS, the Interpretive Center Advisory Committee identified fourteen sites for analysis and the United States Forest Service identified the "Ainsworth/Dodson Interchange" site as a potential interpretive center location; and WHEREAS, the Committee reviewed the sites against the Gorge Commission's adopted siting criteria. The Committee offers comments and recommendations on the sites in the attached memorandum to the Gorge Commission (Exhibit A); and WHEREAS, the Committee concluded in its comments to the Gorge Commission that the "Ainsworth/Dodson Interchange" site best meets the interpretive center siting criteria. Committee members restate the importance of gateway-orientation facilities near the primary entrances to the National Scenic Area; an interpretive center at the Ainsworth/Dodson site would not completely serve orientation needs since it lies approximately 16 miles east of the Sandy River. The Ainsworth/Dodson site possesses significant access advantages for an interpretive center with potential river and rail access and convenient connections to both Interstate-84 and the Historic Columbia River Highway. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners endorses the Interpretive Center Advisory Committee comments (Exhibit A) and recommends the "Ainsworth/Dodson Interchange" site as the Multnomah County site which best meets the Interpretive Center siting criteria.
