Reply Supporting Dewatering Trust Responsibility: The New Klamath River Hydroelectric and Restoration Agreements
In reply to Rebuttal in Defense of the Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement Agreement this article bolsters the conclusions of Dewatering Trust Responsibility: The New Klamath River Hydroelectric and Restoration Agreements that the Klamath Hydroelectric and Restoration Agreements fail to resolve ecological problems and abdicate the United States' trust responsibility to tribes. The article points to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
relicensing proceedings and other studies to show that the Rebuttal fails to counter the arguments in Dewatering Trust that the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement terminates Indian water rights and the Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement Agreement nullifies the public’s right to effective enforcement of applicable federal environmental law.
