Have you met John Day Dam?

Allow us to give you a dam introduction:

-- One of the nation’s largest hydropower dams

-- Generates enough clean energy to power more than a million homes

-- Includes the country’s highest single-life navigation lock (basically a water elevator that helps vessels travel up and down the river)

-- Offers some sick recreation opportunities (including campgrounds, day use areas, and boat launches)

In the coming years, we’ll be working toward a refurbishment of the hydropower infrastructure at John Day Dam and planning out our long-term navigation lock operations.

Heads-up: Takelma Boat Ramp at Lost Creek Lake will close Nov. 2-5 for critical repairs.

What exactly are we doing?
We're fixing some chunks of concrete that have eroded and have broken off and pouring new concrete in those areas in addition to placing a substantial amount of large rock on both sides of the lower ramp to prevent further erosion.

When we reopen this beloved boat ramp following the repairs, it’ll be a better, healthier boat ramp 😊

Portland. Metro. Levee. System.

Say that five times fast!
(OK, fine, it’s not actually that hard.)

We're upgrading Portland's levees!

Through a partnership with the Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District, we're working to improve the Portland region’s flood risk management system to meet federal standards and protect the Portland area against flooding.

We're still in the early stages of engineering and design, but we'll keep you updated along the way!
