The California
State Water
Board Training
Academy is hosting a speaker series, available locally through
distance learning, that includes five stream experts who will present current
research about stream concerns and stream improvement possibilities in California. Given
the diversity of the topography, geology, geography, land use, climatic
conditions and manmade alterations within the state of California; it is not possible to define one method for ensuring
the stability of wadeable streams within the state. When healthy, these smaller
streams provide critical habitat for fish and aquatic life. The seminar
will explore the relationships among stream hydrology, changes in geology, and
riparian and aquatic ecology. According to Foothill Conservancy Vice president
Pete Bell, the seminar will certainly be helpful to local residents.
