The State of California is considering restoring flows on some North Coast Rivers through the California Water Action Plan. Seven dams on the Klamath and Eel Rivers are up for relicensing. These dams provide very little power, but block hundreds of miles of fish habitat. This past year SCS continued efforts to support dam removal, agricultural pollution regulation, and flows for fish.
