Prevent Runoff from Cannabis Grows to Save Salmon Posted by Alyssa Ochs Target: Charlton H. Bonham, Director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife Goal: Prevent harmful runoff waste from cannabis grows to protect salmon Even in locations where cannabis is legal for medical and recreational purposes, illegal grows are causing devastating environmental effects. According to a study conducted by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the 4,000 or so cannabis grows in Humboldt County pose a runoff waste threat to the state’s third largest watershed. Because of regulatory restrictions in the state, cannabis growers still find it necessary to grow illegally in the dense state and national forests. Many of these illegal grows redirect stream water and utilize chemicals that are otherwise banned in the parks. To keep grow operations undercover, growers choose deeply wooded locations, which require irrigated water through diverted systems of pipes and reservoirs. Cannabis growers do not yet have access to programs and government resources to control irrigation runoff, which has impacted the Chinook and Coho salmon populations in the Klamath and Eel Rivers of California. Because this ecosystem is already fragile, the added runoff is putting the salmon at an even greater risk. Diverted streams have caused natural streams to dry up and salmon to die. ......... ...... forcechange.com You dug a couple ponds yourself on your own place, didn't you?
