Since 1938, Bonneville Dam has supplied the region with inexpensive electrical power. Today, they work with other federal, state, local agencies and Native American Tribes to accomplish our mission.
With one of the largest public viewing facilities in the Corps of Engineers, visitors have lots to see and learn at Bonneville Lock and Dam.
