It has now been a week since our Lookout Slough Tidal Habitat Restoration & Flood Improvement Project had all of its final breaches completed and we are very pleased to share that the site is now fully restored and serves as critical storage of Yolo Bypass flows. Over 25 miles of new tidal channels now serve as navigable waterways that are open to small watercraft and over 3,100 acres of tidal marsh habitat are inundated by daily tidal exchange. Thank you again to all of our partners and those that came out to celebrate the success of this landmark project last month!
