Ecological Impacts of Southern California’s Thirst on the Owens Valley Region
“There it is. Take it”.
William Mulholland, mastermind behind the now 110 year old Los Angeles Aqueduct, spoke these words as water first surged down through the channel and began to make its way towards Southern California.

San Diego Has A Cross Border Sewage Problem
For decades, raw sewage from Tijuana, Mexico has, and continues, to flow across the border into San Diego, California. This discharge flows into the Tijuana River Valley, and ultimately to the Pacific Ocean. This pollution has negatively impacted the Tijuana River Valley and the Tijuana River Estuary, one of the last remaining estuaries in California, and the beaches. Unhealthy concentrations of fecal indicator bacteria has forced the County of San Diego to close 10 miles of beach access from the US-Mexico Border all the way to the beaches of Coronado.
