Restore the Delta makes makes pitch to Lathrop Chamber of Commerce

Posted by: Maven on July 22, 2009 at 7:23 am

From the Manteca Bulletin:

Restore the Delta – a group dedicated to finding an alternative to the Peripheral Canal – made a pitch for support at the third annual Lathrop District Chamber of Commerce luncheon Monday that drew some 80 members to the Mikasa Japanese Restaurant in the Save Mart Shopping Center.

Barbara Barrigan-Parilla addressed the group at the luncheon:

Speaking on the restoration of the San Joaquin Delta by 2010 to reestablish a fishable, swimmable, drinkable and farmable water source, Barrigan-Parrilla asked for the support of every chamber member.

The Restore the Delta campaign began with 70 members and has now grown to some 3,000 being kicked off in Stockton nearly three years ago, she said. “This is a very important situation and we want all of your participation to do something about it,” she said.
