No action taken by Mendocino County Board of Supervisors on bill to extend emergency water regulations
At Tuesday morning’s Mendocino County Board of Supervisors meeting, the supervisors spent 27 minutes taking public comment and discussing a request from 5th District Supervisor Ted Williams to provide a letter of support for state Assemblymember Chris Rogers’ Assembly Bill 263. AB 263, sponsored by the Karuk Tribe and supported by California Coastkeeper Alliance, would extend emergency water flow regulations to the Scott and Shasta river watersheds. Both rivers are tributaries of the Klamath River and flow through Siskiyou County. … (Board Chair John Haschak) suggested the Board monitor the bill’s progress and potentially revisit the issue in the future. AB 263 will be heard at the California State Assembly on April 8 by the Committee on Water, Parks and Wildlife.
