Ninety students to tour and study Williamson River Delta restoration


Klamath Falls Herald and News

April 30, 2008


   Ninety Chiloquin and Lost River high school students will tour The Nature Conservancy’s Williamson River Delta restoration today as part of a study of the Klamath Watershed. 


   The tour will beg in with an orientation by Matt Berry, former director of the Williamson River Delta restoration project. Students will see where levees were exploded to restore wetlands, with explanations from engineers Zach Cooper of Knife River and Louis Friend of Zbinden-Carter Engineering. 


   Students will learn how to measure water quality with explanations from Carol Doehring and Siana Wong of The Nature Conservancy, and will learn from fisheries biologists Heather Hendrixson and Charlie Erdman of The Nature Conservancy how suckers are recovering. In addition, Rob Roninger of the Bureau of Land Management will discuss how wetlands help the birds of the Pacific Flyway. 


   The outing is part of “Sharing the Klamath River Watershed: Bringing Together the Next Generation of Stakeholders” sponsored by Educational Solutions, a
Klamath Falls nonprofit group.
