The White House.

Tribal representatives and the governors of Washington and Oregon met with federal officials at the White House on Feb. 23 to sign the Columbia River Basin Agreement, reached during mediation over a long-running lawsuit targeting Snake River dam operations.

The agreement outlines commitments made by the federal government and implemented through a memorandum of understanding between the U.S.; the states of Oregon and Washington; the Nez Perce, Umatilla, Warm Springs and Yakama tribes; and environmental nonprofit organizations.
