Key Provisions of the Columbia River Treaty THE CHALLENGE Canada and the U.S. were facing two major challenges in the Columbia River Basin (Basin) after WWII. In addition to an increasing population, the “untamed” Columbia River was causing periodic and sometimes devastating flooding. Simultaneously, an upswing in the economy increased the need for energy sources. THE SOLUTION In order to meet these challenges, the two countries ratified the CRT in 1964. The purpose of the CRT is to coordinate flood control and optimize hydroelectric energy production in the Basin on both sides of the border. Under the CRT, Canada agreed to build three storage dams in Canada: Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx and Xxxx. The CRT also allowed the U.S. to build Xxxxx Dam in Montana, which created a reservoir that flooded back into Canada.
