SACRAMENTO \u2014 In a landmark move for environmental policy, California has fully established and funded the Salton Sea Conservancy, the state’s first new conservancy in over 20 years, paving the way for a more coordinated and sustainable future for the imperiled region, the California Natural Resources Agency announced.<\/p>\n
The conservancy, officially created by Senate Bill 583 authored by Senator Steve Padilla and signed in September 2024, received its crucial operational funding last month when Governor Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 105. This dual legislative action marks a significant shift in the state’s approach to the long-standing challenges at the Salton Sea.<\/p>\n
