Endangered Steelhead Face Barriers to Critical Habitat

CCKA recently released maps of fish barriers that show how dams and road crossings create a multitude of impassible fish barriers on the waterways designated as critical habitat for Steelhead, denying these endangered native fish the cold, abundant flows they need to thrive.  The health of California’s waterways depends on both clean water and healthy flows.  CCKA actively works to ensure that the State Water Board and Department of Fish and Game fully implement their mandate to ensure healthy flows.  Along with our member Waterkeepers, CCKA also works throughout the state to clean up severely polluted waters.
