EXPLORE THE POWER OF COLLABORATION
For more than a decade, Portland General Electric (PGE) and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs have been generating emissions-free electricity at the Pelton Round Butte hydropower project. Did you know it’s also the site of an ambitious effort to reintroduce sustainable runs of salmon and steelhead to the Deschutes River?
Learn more in our virtual program Hydropower and Habitat on Thursday, June 17. We’ll be joined by Megan Hill, natural resources manager for PGE.

BRING NEW LIFE TO THE ECOSYSTEM
If you’ve experienced our exhibit Dam It! Beavers and Us, you’ve seen the massive interactive display that allows you to reimagine a habitat with the help of one beaver. Now the vibrant educational resource comes to you.
Dive deep into the intricacies of how a beaver transforms the landscape. Take a riparian habitat from a stream without beavers, and watch it transformed into a thriving spot teeming with wildlife.
