Lewis and Clark passed through this area on October 20, 1805, and described the many islands present at that time in the Columbia.

Early Boardman ...
|
Boardman was named after Samuel H. Boardman who filed a homestead claim on land which became the original town of Boardman. In 1916 the town was platted and the Boardman Post Office was established in July.
The U.S. Bureau of Land Managment's General Land Office (GLO) Records database (2007) shows Samuel H. Boardman being granted title to 133.5 acres for parts of T4N R25E Section 8 on November 29, 1909 (1862 Homestead Entry Original).
In the 1960s the town of Boardman was relocated to the south as the waters of Lake Umatilla, the reservoir behind the John Day Dam, covered much of the original townsite.

Faler Road Treaty Fishing Access Site, Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission ...
|
All four Columbia River treaty tribes enjoy fishing rights along the Columbia from the Bonneville to McNary dams. This 147-mile stretch of the river is called Zone 6.
The Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission (CRITFC) operates and maintains 31 fishing sites (2015, Note: the website map only shows 30 sites) in Zone 6. These sites were set aside by Congress to provide fishing locations to Indian fishers whose traditional fishing grounds were inundated behind dams.
-
"For fisheries management purposes, the 292-mile stretch of the Columbia River that creates the border between Washington and Oregon is divided into six zones. Zones 1-5 are between the mouth of the river and Bonneville Dam, a distance of 145 miles. Oregon and Washington manage the commercial fisheries that occur in these zones. Zone 6 is an exclusive treaty Indian commercial fishing area. This exclusion is for commercial fishing only. Non-commercial sports fishers may still fish in this stretch of the river."
[Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission website, 2016]
The Zone 6 sites include
19 Treaty Fishing Access sites
