HOOD RIVER, Ore. (KOIN) — After a contentious battle between water and wages, voters in Hood River County passed a ballot measure to ban all future commercial water bottling operations in the region.

Around 68% of residents voted “yes” on ballot measure 14-55, blocking Nestle’s years-long battle to establish a bottling facility and export 118 million gallons of water a year from Oxbow Springs.
