From Herons to Halibut, Plovers to Painted Ladies, Stingrays to Sunflowers, crabs to Cord grass… the Los Cerritos Wetlands are home to astonishing and diverse wildlife.
Our coastal wetlands have all but vanished. They have been polluted, diked, drained, filled in, paved over, fragmented and developed. Oil companies have covered our once vibrant marshes with toxic drilling muds and oily process sludge. Long Beach has lost a staggering 98.3% of its wetlands.
Wetlands provide services of great value to society; they control floods, protect coastal zones and they host a great diversity of species.
Recent approved projects , such as the Home Depot Project across the street from the wetlands, the extension of shopkeepers Road through the wetlands and the Seaport Marina Project (425 new condominiums), represent a huge threat to restoration efforts.
To combat these encroaching developments, the Los Cerritos Wetlands Land Trust and University Park Estates Neighborhood Association are disputing the inadequate EIR and violations of the California Coastal Act. They are holding a fundraiser on Saturday, October 13, 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. The location is the Gaslamp Restaurant & Bar, 6251 E. Pacific Coast Highway (Loynes Dr.), $30/ person. Please attend this important fundraiser.
