Waterline proposal would help endangered coho salmon, Muir Beach residents
Years of drought have taken a toll on the endangered coho Salmon in Northern California, but a proposed waterline project could help the fish population and a North Bay community. The project would change how Muir Beach residents draw water. There is also a major federal project down the road that could be a roadblock, as conservationists say time is running out. For resident Jim White, he waters his plants using collected rainwater knowing every drop saved, means less water pumped out from nearby Redwood Creek — the only source of water for the residents of Muir Beach. The creek is important for coho Salmon as well, as they travel upstream to spawn every year.
