Bolsa Chica Land Trust Wetlands Work Honored
- Share via
The Bolsa Chica Land Trust received a wetlands recovery award this week for its work in defending the California Coastal Act.
The award is given annually by the Southern California Wetlands Recovery Project Symposium to an individual or organization whose contribution to wetlands had regional significance and required persistence in the face of adversity.
The trust, based in Huntington Beach, is dedicated to preserving the Bolsa Chica wetlands and mesa.
It sued the California Coastal Commission and won a ruling that forbids building in coastal wetlands, even if restoration is done elsewhere.
