First Salmon: The Klamath Cultural Riverscape and the Klamath River Hydroelectric Project

Description: 

This report is based on studies done by or on behalf of the Yurok, Karuk, and Shasta Tribes, together with documents provided by the Hupa Tribe, dealing with the cultural significance of the Klamath Riverscape - that is, the Klamath River and its surroundings. It addresses several questions that are fundamental to fulfilling the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC's) responsibilities under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), and under other cultural resource authorities, in considering relicensing of the PacifiCorp Klamath River Hydroelectric Project.Provenance: unknown Cultural Review: By Sípnuuk Advisory Committee
