Fourteen years ago, (1986) Congress established the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area to protect and enhance the scenic, cultural, recreational, and natural resources of the Columbia River Gorge and to protect and support the economy of the Columbia Gorge. To accomplish this goal, the state of Washington, in an Interstate Cooperative Agreement with Oregon, created the Columbia River Gorge Commission to adopt and enforce standards under the Scenic Area Act. The Commission’s headquarters is located in White Salmon. It is managed by a 12-member Board composed of appointees from the two states and one member appointed by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture. The Commission is operating under an annual budget of $753,099. The primary roles of the Board and its nine employees are planning, consulting, and oversight in the implementation of federal legislation.
