I understand that there are conflicts that have arisen with environmentalists when rafting operators, often in co-operation with municipalities and tourism associations, alter the riverbed by dredging and/or blasting in order to eliminate safety risks or create more interesting whitewater features in the river. Incongruously these measures usually are only temporary, since a riverbed is subject to permanent changes.

We really have to find a way to preserve the river. A damaged river would certainly decrease the enjoyment of rafting.

I was impressed. Good coverage for an event that is gaining momentum and a higher profile, on a network that is relatively small and new.
