Rivers Run Free… Nation’s Biggest Dam Removal Is Done | Gear Junkie:
Last year, 72 dams were removed across the country, including the final portion of the Glines Canyon Dam along the Elwha River in Washington, the largest dam ever removed.
American Rivers keeps track of all the dams removed across the country. In 2014, those 72 removed dams were found in 19 states.
[According to American Rivers, 15O,618 acres of riverside land was protected and 4.2 million pounds of trash were removed through their National River Cleanup program. Progress!]
