Unpredictable snowpack, dwindling water supplies, collapsing fish populations, and an expected update to the Bay-Delta plan make CA water management issues more urgent than ever before.

"And there are folks who just don't care about those things. And I like to tell them these are just messengers of worse things to come," as our lead scientist @jarosenfield told ABC-7 News.

That's why we're taking action, along with our partners at the Center of Biological Diversity, to hold the Bureau of Reclamation accountable under the law.

BREAKING: We're putting the Trump administration on legal notice for killing and harming winter-run Chinook #Salmon, Central Valley #Steelhead, and Green #Sturgeon in the Bay-Delta.

“The Bureau of Reclamation is blatantly violating the #EndangeredSpeciesAct and putting the Bay’s most iconic fish species at greater risk of extinction,” as our lead attorney Eric Buescher said. “There is simply no excuse for its actions or refusal to comply with the law."

Thanks to our great coalition partners at the Center for Biological Diversity and Friends of the River
