Pelican Network activity
Conservation is becoming increasingly vital in communities all over California. As we enter our thirteenth year as a volunteer conservation advocacy, Pelican Network is asked to help more each year as we have become more effective each year. We help muster resources to rehabilit
ate wetlands, restore habitat, and create local means of sustainability. In many parts of the state we are initiating community-based models of economic sustainability through conservation. You can preview this project at Renew California - a slide show we present everywhere we can. It presents the case for conservation as a public-private partnership. The concept is built on our record of helping to bring about government policy change for the good of community conservation. We work in teams, create networks and strive for consensus like a watershed council. Pelican Summary
Our successes include: We created the Salmon Coalition to organize native fishery restoration; created the Klamath Restoration Council;

It presents the case for conservation as a public-private partnership. http://www.pelicannetwork.net/chanterelle.htm The concept is built on our record of helping to bring about government policy change for the good of community conservation. Our successes include: We created the Salmon Coalition to organize native fishery restoration; created the Klamath Restoration Council; established the Big Sur coast trail community planning process; stopped the US Navy plan to establish a practice bombing range in Big Sur; brought the State and Duke Energy to the highest court in California to stop once-through cooling of its power plants; created the Pelican Protection Alliance to stop barbaric fishing practices that were killing sea birds; stopped the Canyon Creek placer mining that would wipe out a coho spawning tributary to the Trinity River;
founded the Big Sur Chanterelle Cook-Off to help fund local conservation; created WildBigSur an internet community bulletin board after the debilitating 2008 fire; played important role to keep California State Parks funded; organized public advocacy campaign to bring all California resource agencies to work together for the first time in a process we initiated to re-evaluate logging practices. We initiated study of Big Sur south coast redwods which are disappearing because of State Parks and U.S. Forest Service indifference, and restoration of the Big Sur River.
