The Columbia Canal
(The Old)

The Columbia Canal, the oldest canal in the Tri-Cities area, was built in 1893 and is operated by the Columbia Irrigation District. The canal starts at the Horn Rapids Dam (renamed Wanawish Dam in 1997) and runs from there through West Richland, Richland, and Kennewick. In Kennewick, the canal divides into three lateral canals which each continue into Finley. The total length of the Columbia Canal system is over 25 miles.
