Plumas Corporation is restoring 441 acres of meadow habitat at Mountain Meadows Creek in California to improve hydrological and ecosystem functions. The project will reconnect the creek to its historic floodplain, reduce erosion, and enhance wetland habitat for migrating birds and gray wolves. It will also address forest health through fuel reduction, reforestation, and the removal of conifer encroachment, ensuring resilience to future wildfires. These efforts aim to restore the balance of water flow, vegetation, and wildlife habitat in the area.
