Remove the Gold Ray DamThe Gold Ray dam is 105 years-old, was taken out of electricity production decades ago and is now a major liability for its owner, Jackson County. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife identified the obsolete dam as the fifth biggest problem for fish passage in the state. The federal stimulus funding that was received by the county to remove the dam is a wonderful chance for Jackson County to address this looming liability and take major action to assist in the recovery of Rogue River salmon. |
