Malibu Lagoon Needs Help
If you have ever been to Surfrider Beach, you probably have seen Malibu Lagoon. It’s where Malibu Creek enters the ocean, and is one of the last freshwater lagoons in the LA area. Unfortunately, the lagoon is in serious trouble. There’s not enough circulation, so the water is stagnant, and contaminated sediments and high bacteria levels seriously impair the habitat. We’ve been super involved in the restoration plan, and we will continue to be involved in the actual work. Check out Mark Gold’s thoughts on the restoration, and a recent LA Times story.
