Klamath River tribes praise dam removal momentum
After decades of fighting, tribes in Northern California can celebrate the pending removal of four dams on the Klamath River.

Federal regulators cleared the way to remove the dams starting as early as next summer. If the plan comes to fruition, it will be the largest dam removal and salmon restoration project in history, something tribes say is sorely need to bring salmon back to their people.
