Event Details

A Public Meeting sponsored by the Friends of Famosa Slough

 

What’s in the water?

 

Experts discuss the quality of water in the Famosa Slough.

 

We know it has two sources:

  • The daily tidal flows – of saltwater from the San Diego River Channel. And after prolonged rainfall in San Diego’s Backcountry, freshwater from upstream, and
  • Runoff from the surrounding neighborhood, heaviest, of course, and freshest, after rainfall nearby.

How is it tested? Protected?

Is it good for birds, fish and mollusks? Us?

 

Speakers from the City and County, their consultants and a nonprofit dedicated to enhancing water quality.

 

Light refreshments will be served.
