Klamath Dam Removal Project | Shasta Indian Nation | Summer Music & Wine Pairing
The largest dam removal project in U.S. history along the Klamath River and its impact on the Shasta Indian Nation. A classical music and wine pairing for the summer season.
Klamath Dam removal project and the Shasta Indian Nation
The Klamath River runs more than 250 miles from Southern Oregon to the Pacific Ocean in Northern California, and is currently undergoing the largest dam removal project in U.S. history. Mark Bransom, Chief Executive Officer of the Klamath River Renewal Corporation (KRRC), explains why his organization is leading this river restoration project, decades in the making. KRRC’s governance is composed of 15 members who are appointed by the governors of Oregon and California, in addition to appointees from the Yurok and Karuk tribes, conservation groups, as well as fisheries. The Klamath River dam removal project was largely driven by tribes who long called this land home before modern water infrastructure. Sami Jo Difuntorum, the Culture Preservation Officer with Shasta Indian Nation, shares how her tribe has endured and suffered on this land through the decades. She also explains the significance and mixed feelings of this monumental river restoration, which carries the risk of disturbing ancestral human remains.
Summer music and wine pairing
Hot summer nights call for the smooth sounds of classical music and a cool, crisp glass of your favorite wine. But with the temperatures soaring across the region, you might wonder what to serve at your next get-together. Wine expert Rick Kushman joins us along with CapRadio Midday Classical Host, Jennifer Reason to pair the perfect music and wine for these scorching summer months. Rick will also have some tips on the best wineries to visit to avoid the summer crowds.
