A judge in Fresno is supporting Westlands Water District in preventing the release of more water from the Trinity River Dam. The water is so low and warm that the Chinook Salmon, coming into the Klamath and Trinity Rivers now, are in danger of a massive kill as happened in 2002.
Winnemem Wintu Chief Sisk, speaking is support of the Hoopa Tribe’s efforts to protect their salmon, said:
“The salmon need waters that were always theirs, water for them that Creator put there from the very beginning for them…..that water was never intended for corporate farms growing watermelons and cotton in contaminated arid lands in the deserts of Southern California. Salmon FEED the World and clean the WATERS!”
