Book excerpt: Winner of the J. B. Jackson Prize from the Association of American Geographers Three centuries ago, the Los Angeles River meandered through marshes and forests of willow and sycamore. Trout spawned in its waters and grizzly bears roamed its shores. The bountiful environment the river helped create supported one of the largest concentrations of Indians in North America. Today, the river is made almost entirely of concrete. Chain-link fence and barbed wire line its course. Shopping carts and trash litter its channel. Little water flows in the river most of the year, and nearly all that does is treated sewage and oily street runoff. On much of its course, the river looks more like a deserted freeway than a river. The river's contemporary image belies its former character and its importance to the development of Southern California. Los Angeles would not exist were it not for the river, and the river was crucial to its growth. Recognizing its past and future potential, a potent movement has developed to revitalize its course. The Los Angeles River offers the first comprehensive account of a river that helped give birth to one of the world's great cities, significantly shaped its history, and promises to play a key role in its future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Los Angeles Watershed is a dynamic system that is undergoing constant change and a regular, reoccurring program of monitoring allows us to better understand and respond to changes. The Los Angeles River Watershed Monitoring Program (LARWMP), which is the basis for this report, is a collaborative effort to assess the health of the Los Angeles Watershed from a regional perspective. The Cities of Los Angeles and Burbank and their partners envision a healthy, sustainable Los Angeles River Watershed that meets the water quality, water supply, flood management, recreational and habitat needs of its human and biological communities. With 1,400 miles of streams from the San Gabriel Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, the Los Angeles River Watershed supports a population of more than 4.5 million people and countless plants and animals. We need to understand the watershed's overall health and the major stressors in order to ensure sustainability and resilience of this region. The intent of this and subsequent reports is to describe current conditions and trends of the Los Angeles River Watershed through addressing the following five questions: 1. What is the condition of streams in the watershed? 2. Are conditions at areas of unique interest getting better or worse? 3. Are receiving waters near discharges meeting water quality objectives? 4. Is it safe to swim? 5. Are locally caught fish safe to eat? This is the first time the watershed has been comprehensively assessed using multiple indicators. The results presented in this report will assist watershed managers and other interested persons to identify areas of concern and to prioritize management actions. The detailed assessments, methods and quality assurance for this program can be found in the individual Los Angeles River Watershed Monitoring Program annual reports from 2008 through 2012. The LARWMP monitoring efforts will continue in future years and the State of the Watershed report will be issued periodically to reflect new data and findings.
