The Impending Threat of the A Canal
One hundred years after it was built, the Klamath Irrigation District's A Canal now poses great risks to the homes and people of Klamath Falls.
Water is seeping from the canal and there are no control structures in place to protect the neighborhoods from a potential canal break and the 900 acre-feet of water running through the elevated canal. The A canal story is one of many showcasing the risks of aging infrastucture and the urgent need for modernization.
