Eel River Restoration Takes River Stories To Zoom

The South Fork of the Eel River

The Eel River is one of the major rivers of our region, draining a big chunk of California land into the Pacific south of Eureka.

The river has also taken a beating environmentally over the years, and that's why there is an Eel River Recovery Project. ERRP is making sure the public stays up-to-date on river doings during the pandemic, offering the Eel River Zoom Series, Friday afternoon presentations on a wide range of topics affecting the river and its health.

Sessions started on April 8th and run through May 28th. Patrick Higgins, Managing Director of ERRP, gives us the overview.

Patrick says if you're interested in helping the Recovery Project, call him. 707-223-7200.
