Interview with Ken Balcomb
Peterson/Hawley Productions
In this interview, Ken speaks about the importance of removing the Snake River Dams to provide sufficient wild Chinook salmon to feed the Southern Resident orca community.
"This is probably the most important project I have undertaken in my life. There is a lot of opposition [to the breaching of the dams], but we will prevail."
