To readers:
Controversy continues to surround the removal of
4 hydro-electric Klamath dams.
I made several errors in my "Liz Writes Life" column
of January 22, 2019. I am correcting them in my
January 29, 2019 column that will be published in
the Siskiyou Daily News paper located in Yreka, CA.
It will also be posted here on this blog site.
I am posting the following information to
ENCOURAGE everyone to go to the
State Water Resources Control Board site
and read for yourself the
DRAFT Environmental Impact Report released the
end of December and last updated on January 2, 2019
when I copy and pasted the front page with index
