Illegal homeless camps along the Feather River are causing concern among locals about the impact on the waterway and its ecosystem. Community members worry that debris from these camps could harm the salmon that spawn in the river each year.
Terry Gregg, a local fisherman, has been fishing in the Feather River for decades and expressed his feelings about the matter. “I have a concern for what’s going into the water,” Gregg said. “We’re blessed here to have a wonderful fishery, a healthy fishery that depends on good clean water and the ability to spawn and to navigate to make their life cycle.”
