Hahamongna Watershed activists are holding an event Saturday morning to protest the county's silt excavation plan.
"Hands across the Dam" will take place Dec. 14 atop Devil's Gate Dam at 11 AM. The action is to protest the extensive silt excavation plan, which will involve a fleet of trucks operating six days a week for a period of years. Activists say the plan will destroy the natural area that has sprung up, involving native trees and plants and animals who have come to refuge behind the dam.
