No, it's not.

If you email any of the involved I am sure they can find the actual cameraman if that's what you're asking. OPB/Oregon Field Guide always have *stunning* content, visually. Congrats to them for managing to keep good producers/directors on staff; some of the cinematography is IMAX worthy and has been shot as such.

I’m surprised there was a question about whether the ACE had destroyed the falls by blasting around 1956 or ’57 - presumably, either shortly before or shortly after inundation. From the first-hand testimony in this video, we surely know the falls were not destroyed before inundation. Several people say that they constantly heard the roar of the falls, all their lives, until the lake rose, and then there was no noise but the wind. (See, e.g., 6:36-7:32.) That •surely• means that the falls were not destroyed before inundation. What about after inundation? That’s not inconceivable, but if the ACE wanted to destroy the falls, why would they wait until it required underwater demolition - something that’s always more difficult and costly than open-air blasting? Moreover, I recall seeing photos in newspapers (and maybe even tv news footage) in the 1970s, or perhaps the early ’80s, at some point when repairs of some sort on The Dalles Dam required that the reservoir be drawn down considerably. The level of the lake got so low that the upper portions of the falls were visible for the first time in decades. Quite a few vertical feet were exposed. The now-rare sight was a major local-interest story, so it got plenty of press - and, obviously, made it clear that the falls had not been blasted out of existence. So, how come no one remembered that episode, when rumors started popping up that the falls had been destroyed?! I’m certainly glad we have the proof that the falls are still there, albeit submerged. But it’s puzzling that rumors to the contrary got much traction, and persisted for even a little while.

I read that they actually floated this idea to the tribes. They rejected it because the sight of Celilo getting flooded would be more tragic than getting to see it again. Also, I suspect that the dam has a physical limit to how low they can drain the pondage, so probably it would still be very deep and mostly flooded (I'm guessing). I'm hoping that one day the nation will have enough clean power that some Columbia dams can start to be removed. This one gets my vote for the first to go. If they could find a way to get salmon past Chief Joseph and Grand Coulee, that would be a huge deal too.

We do need the other dams for hydropower (does anyone really want coal or nuclear power instead?) and we need the dams for the safe navigation of ships. No ships mean more diesel trucks on the road and more air pollution. If we could somehow make a new, larger shipping canal for vessels, and remove only The Dalles Dam, it would be an incredible site to see and hear the roar of Celilo Falls again.
