This summer, from Memorial Day to Labor Day, you can kayak the Los Angeles River and learn about the habitat and hydrology that fuel it. Now some of the same prognosticators are predicting La Niña, the errant boy's sister, but will she show up or not? We recommend that you reject "clickbait" and stick with the science and your heightened water conservation efforts. This winter's climate in Southern California bedeviled journalists and scientists itching for massive floods and a Godzilla El Niño. To get involved or to inquire about internship opportunities at ASF, contact Niña or Not? There will be a volunteer training for this project the first week of June. Water quality will also be tested at each site. Once a temperature profile can be recorded, management agencies will have better tools to plan restoration efforts for native fish species, such as the Arroyo Chub and Rainbow Trout.ĪSF Watershed Coordinator David Bañuelas helped RCD and Cal State LA staff install two loggers in the natural stream section of the Arroyo below the Rose Bowl and above Hahamongna, upstream from JPL. The electronic devices will record stream temperature every hour volunteers and staff will upload the data each month. On May 6th the partners installed thirteen temperature loggers throughout the Upper LA River Watershed. The Arroyo Seco Foundation, Cal State Los Angeles and the Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains (RCD) have joined together to record hourly temperatures in the Los Angeles and Arroyo Seco Rivers. Temperature - A Key To Restoring Native Fish in the Arroyo? Kudos to Morey Wolfson of the Environmental Advisory Commission, Tim Martinez, who represented ASF on the citizens' task force, Wesley Reutimann, the "Good to Go" gang and all the community activists who made success possible. Now there shouldn't be as much styrofoam clogging the Arroyo stream, choking fish and filling up the Pacific Ocean. It was an enthusiastic, green crowd that gathered outside the Pasadena City Council chambers on May 9 to celebrate the Council's unaminous vote to ban polystrene in the City of Roses.

"These recent sightings should really focus the regulators on the importance of protecting critical habitat like Hahamongna and enforcing the Endangered Species Act," said Mitchell M. ![]() The Flood Control District's environmental documentation largely ignored recorded sightings of the federally listed endangered species as well as California species of special concern, namely the yellow warbler and the yellow-breasted chat. Another federal endangered species, the burrowing owl, has also recently shown up. The recent discovery of a pair of Least Bell's Vireo, a federally endangered bird found only in wetland areas, could throw a monkey wrench in the County Flood Control District's plans to excavate the Hahamongna basin.
