From MyDesert.com:

A bill creating an overseer for restoration of the troubled Salton Sea passed the Senate Environmental Quality Committee on Monday.

Senate Bill 51 by Sen. Denise Ducheny, D-San Diego, would establish the Salton Sea Restoration Council governed by a 14-member executive committee of local, state, and tribal officials to direct what’s estimated to be a 75-year effort to prevent much of the state’s largest lake lake from drying up.

Senate leader Darrell Steinberg is now co-authoring the bill. More from MyDesert.com by clicking here.
