The Watershed Council, the University of California Cooperative Extension and the US Forest Service will hold a symposium on post-fire recovery at the Altadena Community Center, 730 E. Altadena Dr., on Thurs., Dec. 16, from 9 AM-4:30 PM. The daylong discussion of ecology, conservation and recovery lessons from the 2009 San Gabriel Mountains Station and Morris Fires costs $25, and lunch will be provided.
Expert presenters will help us to understand how we can better protect the biodiversity of the Angeles Forest while preserving its recreational uses. Key topics will include fire frequency, type conversion, soil, habitat, and biodiversity loss.
