CSPA Advisory 6.19.08

TIME IS SHORT FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION IN AB 1806 LETTER CAMPAIGN

If you haven't already written letters in support of AB 1806, time is running out for the correspondence to reach the legislators to be encouraged to back the bill in the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee. The bill, a delta restoration bill, is scheduled to be heard June 24th, Room 112 of the State Capitol, at 9:30.

Complete instructions including addresses, fax numbers and e-mail addresses, as well as sample letters can be found in the attached PFD file. The same information can be found at:

Because of the limited time available to send your letter, fax letters are the recommended medium.

FUNDS NEEDED TO SUPPORT CSPA'S EFFORTS IN COMING STRIPED BASS LAW SUIT

Donations are needed to support CSPA's filing as Intervener in the suit in Federal court in the lawsuit filed by the Coalition for a Sustainable Delta et al against the California Department of Fish and Game and Fish and Game Commission. The lawsuit accuses the DFG of threatening the existence of endangered salmon and Delta smelt through DFG's striped bass management program.

CSPA will have to expend it's own meager funds to defend the Striped Bass from the claims made by the coalition,(actually a group of Kern County water districts) and, even if successful, will not be re-imbrued for what could be extensive court costs.

For more information on the case read the CSPA Advisory 5.20.08

and other news articles listed in the More News section of the website.
