CHICO — Brown and orange colored sediment polluted salmon-bearing and crop-irrigating waters of Butte Creek beginning Thursday morning, caused by a breach along the Butte Canal near Lovelock.
“The turbidity was caused by the beach where water came out and it ran down the hillside,” Moreno said. “The spill gates are located at natural drainages … rocky drainages — and that’s by design and you have a bit of turbidity there.” Resources from the State Water Resources Control Board were sent Friday to help reduce sediment coming into the creek, according to Allen Harthorn, executive director of Friends of Butte Creek, whose team has purchased with a grant a 5 cubic feet per second in stream water right dedicated for habitat restoration.
A secton of Butte Creek is seen contaminated with sediment, appearing opaque and brown and orange around 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 10, 2023 near Allen Harthorn’s residence in Helltown, California.
