The Mono Lake Story
Carson City Library will present “The Mono Lake Story”, a film, on Thursday, May 3rd, beginning at 6:30 p.m. A previous article provided an earlier date for the showing of this DVD, Thursday, May 3rd is the correct date. Mono Lake Committee Volunteer Jackie Stroud will be on-hand for questions and discussion about the restoration of this diverse ecosystem.
THE MONO LAKE COMMITTEE AND RESTORATION
Part of the mission of the Mono Lake Committee is to restore the important habitats of the Mono Basin. The Committee believes that the best and most cost-effective method of restoration is re-establishing natural processes. This means establishing peak flows on the creeks that give the creeks enough energy to recreate their former habitats without significant intervention or continued maintenance. When past degradation is such that it is difficult to reinstate natural processes, the Committee supports a limited "helping hand," such as reopening side channels on the streams to raise water tables and provide complex habitat, or planting native vegetation to jump-start streambank recovery.
This film has received numerous invitations and awards from film festivals such as the Sedona International Film Festival and the Wild & Scenic Film Festival.
