“… The lowering — or drawdown — of Iron Gate and two other reservoirs on the Klamath River will make way for the removal of three remaining hydroelectric dams …”

Not to worry about the push for electric cars,  cause hydroelectric dams are IRRELEVANT, just plug in the car and electric will magically appear.  
Or the Calf Crying for water.
And of course, no more fire in Calf, so the reservoir is not needed.
And the loss of landowners land, also totally IRRELEVANT.

But Wait, “…the salmon, steelhead and Pacific lamprey…”. Will benefit !
A Yurok Tribe member is: ”…  looking forward to fulfilling a simple personal goal.
"Fishing," she said. "I want to go fishing." …”

"...Traditional Yurok villages were small collections of independent houses owned by individual families. Avoiding unified communities and an overall political authority, village residents sometimes shared rights to general subsistence areas and to the performance of certain rituals.

Other rights, such as the right to use specific areas for fishing, hunting, and gathering, generally belonged to particular houses. These rights were acquired by inheritance or dowry, as part of blood money settlements, or by sale.

In addition to dwellings, villages had sweat houses, each of which served as a gathering places for the men of an extended patrilineal family. There were also separate shelters to which women retired during menstruation.

The traditional Yurok economy focused on salmon and acorns. The people also produced excellent basketry and made canoes from redwood trees, selling them to inland tribes.

Wealth was counted in strings of dentalium shells, obsidian blades, woodpecker scalps, and albino deerskins. Acquiring wealth was an important goal in Yurok culture.

Feuds were common, and payments of blood money were precisely defined according to the seriousness of the offense; the value of a man’s life depended on his social status. ..."


Now, they have embraced modernism.
