State Senator Ben Hueso and Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia are hosting a tour of the Salton Sea today March 16, 1:00p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Statewide leaders will visit sites and hear from community members, resource managers, and regulators in order to experience first-hand and deepen their understanding of the opportunities to protect public health, enhance the ecology, secure water management, and strengthen the regional economy.

“It is an honor to have California Natural Resources Agency Secretary John Laird, Chair of the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee Senator Bob Hertzberg, and my colleagues to visit my district to tour the Salton Sea,” said Senator Hueso. “It is my goal for all of those involved to gain an understanding on what we need to do to restore the Salton Sea and learn more about our renewable sources of energy.”
