The Council for Watershed Health (CWH) is targeting the removal of Arundo donax, a high-water use invasive plant, in the Falls Creek area of the Devil’s Canyon subwatershed to conserve water and restore native habitat. By removing 2.4 acres of Arundo, the project will save 48 acre-feet of water annually and prevent further expansion downstream into the Los Angeles River. This effort will improve water availability, reduce fire risks, and support the re-establishment of native vegetation, enhancing both water quality and habitat for local wildlife.
