California Assemblymember Laura Friedman, author of AB 975 – California has 1,362 miles of state-designated rivers in the California Wild and Scenic Rivers System – critical habitat for wildlife with extraordinary historical, cultural, and environmental value. As uncertainty mounts at the federal level, AB 975 ensures that California’s rivers that have a federal designation as Wild and Scenic are also protected under state law.
