A conversation with Sen. Denise Moreno Ducheny about what’s next for the Salton Sea.

Senate Bill 1256, which would would have created an oversight committee, is dead, and another, SB 187, to allocate funding to restore the sea, is stalled. What should happen now?

The funding is in the budget. Activities on restoration will continue. It would be beneficial to get SB 187 passed out of the Legislature this year so that more direction is provided with a framework for the beginning activities for restoration. It provides an important framework for early-start activities and provides legislative direction to the administration to start those no regrets necessary early implementation projects. Finally, it provides a stronger signal to the federal government and local governments as well that the state is moving forward on the restoration project.
