The
Columbia Plateau is a 50,000 square mile region in Washington, Oregon,
and Idaho containing both one of the driest as well as the most
productive rainfed wheat regions in the world. Windblown dust is
a concern in the dryer regions of the Columbia Plateau; dust generated
from farming and construction sites poses a hazard to motorists,
reduces soil productivity, and pollutes air in downwind communities. Learn more.
