They learn that The Dalles Dam inundated Celilo Falls in 1957; dams can provide benefits such as hydropower and navigation while also changing ecosystems and fishing places. The lesson distinguishes those tradeoffs from treaty fishing rights, which remained legal rights after the river changed. Students then examine how Tribal, state, and federal governments coordinate river decisions, how Oregon’s Constitution structures state government, how initiative and referendum processes allow civic participation, and how the 1971 Bottle Bill provides a stable example of law addressing an environmental problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExplore the 10-Lesson Oregon Sequence\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/readerstheaterworksheets.com\/products\/oregon-state-history-mountains-valleys-rivers-oregon-geography-rt-script-mini-readers\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1.
