Congressman Ted Lieu (CA-33) has introduced new legislation to explore the expansion of the Santa Monica National Recreation Area southward along the coast to the Palos Verdes peninsula and inland along Ballona Creek through the wetlands to the Baldwin Hills.
On a beautiful March 31st morning in the Ballona Freshwater Marsh, BCR’s Jim Lamm joined a gathering of government officials and nonprofits to hear and briefly discuss Rep. Lieu’s important announcement. The proposed legislation would initiate a three-year collaborative study. Among the many opportuinities and challenges will be working together toward both recreation and restoration. More details and photos may be found in the Congressman’s Press Release and on the Friends of Ballona Wetlands blog. Photo via the office of Congressman Lieu (CA-33).
