Our goal is to meet the increasing water needs of the Pacific Northwest while protecting the environment and the public's investment. The Pacific Northwest region encompasses the Columbia River Basin, which includes the states of Idaho and Washington, most of Oregon, and parts of Montana and Wyoming. Water is supplied from 54 reservoirs with a total active capacity of approximately 18 million acre-feet. Power production facilities at Grand Coulee Dam are among the largest in the world.
