  • “Shorten and Streamline” Federal Land Use Planning While Being “More Transparent and Accessible”
    The Original Rule Was Intended To “Shorten And Streamline” Federal Land Use Planning While Being “More Transparent And Accessible” A 2008 And 2009 Biological Opinion Found That The Central Valley Project And State Water Operations Would Threaten Endangered Species And “Destroy Or Adversely ModiFy” Critical Habitat. “The 2008 and 2009 BiOps found that the Central Valley Project and State Water Project operations would jeopardize the continued existence of listed species, including endangered Sacramento River winter-run Chinook salmon, threatened Delta smelt, and threatened Central Valley steelhead, and would destroy or adversely modify these species' designated critical habitat.” [California Attorney General Xavier Becerra Press Release, accessed 10/07/20] In 2019, The Fish And Wildlife Service Was Told To Prepare A New, More Limited Environmental Review Of The Shasta Dam. “This year the Interior Department’s Fish and Wildlife Service was told to prepare a new environmental review of the dam project, but this one will be much more limited in scope, according to a person familiar with the plans, who requested anonymity out of fear of retribution. The new plan would not analyze the effects on salmon habitat downstream or the effects on several rare species.” [New York Times, 09/28/19] The New Biological Opinion Weakened Protections For The Delta Smelt, Allowing Large Amounts OF Water To Be Diverted From The San Francisco Bay Delta. “The Trump administration on Tuesday moved to weaken protections for a threatened California fish, a change that would allow large amounts of water to be diverted from the San Francisco Bay Delta to irrigate arid farmland and could harm the region’s fragile ecosystem.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Hastings Environmental Law Journal by an authorized editor of UC Hastings Scholarship Repository. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Bridging the Safe Drinking Water Gap for California’s Rural Poor By Camille Pannu* Spurred by decades of inaction and continued exposure to unsafe drinking water, community leaders from California’s disadvantaged communities1 (DACs) advocated for the creation of a human right to water2 under state law.3 Shortly * Camille Pannu is the Director of the Water Justice Clinic, Aoki Center for Critical Race and Nation Studies at UC Davis School of Law. I thank the residents of California’s disadvantaged communities, and the organizations that amplify their voices, for their tireless efforts to extend water justice to our state’s most vulnerable people. Additionally, I thank Olivia Molodanof, Jessica Durney, and the Editors of the Hastings Environmental Law Journal for their patient and thoughtful editing. All errors are, of course, my own. 1. “Disadvantaged community” has become a legal term of art for an alternative poverty measure that compares a community’s relative socioeconomic status (median household income) to the statewide median household income level.

  • A. INTRODUCTION the Devil's Basin Research Natural Area (DBRNA
    A. INTRODUCTION The Devil's Basin Research Natural Area (DBRNA) lies within the Corning Ranger District, Mendocino National Forest (Maps 1 and 2). The California black oak (Quercus kelloggii1)stands and surrounding areas of Devil's Basin were first reconnoitered in 1984 (Henry 1984), and subsequently proposed as a representative of the California Black Oak Woodland type (Holland 1986). An ecological survey of the basin was completed in 1987 (Newton 1987). Unless otherwise noted, information contained in this Establishment Record is based on this ecological survey. The DBRNA has had no history of intensive use such as logging or grazing. The DBRNA is entirely under public ownership with the Mendocino National Forest. 1) Land Management Planning The establishment of Devil's Basin RNA is recommended and evaluated in the Mendocino National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP 1995) and the Environmental Impact Statement and Appendices for the LRMP (U.S.D.A. Forest Service 1995a-c). The land allocation for the Devil's Basin RNA was decided by the signing of the Record of Decision (ROD) for the LRMP by the Regional Forester (1995). The establishment of the DBRNA is completed upon signature of this Establishment Record with concurrence of the Station Director. The area lies within the Research Natural Areas Management Area #5 allocated to Management Prescription #11 which emphasizes the preservation of natural conditions and the protection of features for which the RNA was established (Appendix 3). B. OBJECTIVES The primary purpose for establishment of the DBRNA is to preserve a representative of a Black Oak Woodland ecosystem and its associates in a condition minimally modified by humans within the North Coast Physiographic Province for their scientific value and educational importance.
