PacifiCorp Reaches Deal With Yakama Nation For “Right Of First Offer”

PacifiCorp has reached a deal with the Yakama Nation to give the tribe a Right of First Offer for as much as 289 acres of land along the White Salmon River should the utility ever decide to sell.  The property is not currently for sale.  The land included in the agreement begins at the former dam site down river to where the White Salmon flows into the Columbia.  The still standing Condit Powerhouse is part of the property covered by the agreement.  The agreement does not include company-owned property further upriver where leased cabin sites and Northwestern Park are located.  PacifiCorp has owned the land since the early 1900s as part of the operation of the Condit Hydroelectric Project.  The company recently satisfied all federal requirements concerning the White Salmon River’s rehabilitation following the removal of the Condit Dam in 2012.
