From MyDesert.com:

The Salton Sea might have fallen off the radar in Sacramento, but it’s still on the map in the Coachella Valley’s backyard. And it still faces an ever-worsening ecological crisis that could have huge environmental impacts locally.

A multi-billion-dollar plan to restore the sea is stalled in the Legislature. But lesser, quieter progress toward at least the beginnings of a solution continues, officials said.

On Thursday, the state departments of Water Resources and Fish and Game will update the public on activities at the sea.

“It’s been a year since we’ve been out to the public, so we felt it was time to get back out there, let them know there’s work that’s been going on and what that work has been,” said Kim Nichol, an environmental program manager with the Department of Fish and Game.
