California Region
In California we are spearheading some of the most innovative water supply solutions seen anywhere in the country. Whether it is restoring meadows in the Sierra, that provides water for 65% of Californians, removing barriers to salmon migration, or improving dam operations on the Yuba and Bear rivers, our staff is proving that it is possible to get communities the water they need while keeping our rivers healthy. We are also leading efforts to remove some of the state’s outdated dams. Our skillful negotiations recently resulted in an agreement to remove four dams on the Klamath River – the biggest dam removal and river restoration project the world has ever seen. With global warming shrinking mountain snowpack and bringing more intense floods and droughts, our work to protect California’s rivers and fresh water is more important than ever.
