Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is proposing to fund Columbia Land Trust to purchase the Rainbow Farms, a 79-acre parcel of land located 8 miles west of Beaverton, in Washington County, Oregon. The property would be placed under a conservation easement to provide long-lasting fish and wildlife benefits by preventing the conversion of fish and wildlife habitat to other land uses. BPA would also provide stewardship funds toward maintenance of the property to the landowner, Columbia Land Trust.
