Powerdale Dam Removal

Projects_DamBeforeWork began in mid-April of 2010 on the long-awaited decommissioning and removal of Powerdale Dam. The dam has been removed along with the fish facility, intake structure, power canal, steel flume, and sand settling basin at the project’s upstream location.

The Hood River Watershed Group and other project partners documented the removal of the dam.
