John,

Cool, free-flowing waters are better for fish and for people. Healthy waterways support life and keep our planet habitable.

But the four lower Snake River dams have turned 140 miles of river into a series of warm and stagnant lakes. When restored, the water level will return to its previous level and land and cultural sites long buried by water will finally be revealed. What is the plan to protect cultural resources, improve recreational access, and restore the lower Snake River riparian ecosystems? 

You are invited to join us for dinner as we explore this question at the upcoming Snake River Dinner Hour webinar, Culture + Recreation + Ecology = benefits of a restored lower Snake River happening on March 12 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

We are honored to feature the following guests share their thoughts in our conversation:

• Kayeloni Scott, NW Communications Director, American Rivers

• Nakia Williamson, Cultural Resources Director, Nez Perce Tribe

• Lauren McCullough, Operations Manager at OARS Dories
