Against intense local opposition, the Obama administration wants to demolish three dams on the Klamath River in Siskiyou County, California. Low-cost clean hydroelectricity as well as water for irrigation would be lost if the dams were removed. Removal of the dams would also cause chaos for ranchers, homeowners, and small business who live and work in the downstream of the dams.

The “studies” gives scant attention to the thousands of Cu yards of sediment piled up behind the three dams and the destruction it will cause down stream and the rate payers are being forced to pay for this farce...

Maybe Obama really wants to jack up food prices some more by making another area of land unfit to grow crops.
