Santa Maria River Guardians
a new group SBCAN is forming to protect and enhance the Santa Maria River.
We will work on habitat restoration, water quality improvements, solutions to flooding, enhanced public access and advocating for policies that benefit the Santa Maria River watershed.
This winter we will be planting native plants and restoring habitat in several areas where encampments had been located in the Santa Maria riverbed near Magellan and Seaward Drives in Santa Maria.
We are doing this work in partnership with Channel Islands Restoration and the County of Santa Barbara. We need volunteers to help us.
We hope to do the first planting in late January 2025.

Restoration of the encampments in the Santa Maria Riverbed is funded by a grant from the Rose Foundation.

un nuevo grupo que SBCAN está creando para proteger y mejorar el río Santa María
Trabajaremos en la restauración del hábitat, mejoras en la calidad del agua, soluciones a las inundaciones, mejor acceso público y abogaremos por políticas que beneficien la cuenca del río Santa María.
Este invierno plantaremos plantas nativas y restauraremos el hábitat en varias áreas donde se ubicaron campamentos en el lecho del río Santa María cerca de Magellan y Seaward Drives en Santa María.
Estamos haciendo este trabajo en asociación con Channel Islands Restoration y el condado de Santa Bárbara. Necesitamos voluntarios que nos ayuden.
Esperamos hacer la primera plantación a finales de enero de 2025.
