Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan (EIR/EIS)

Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan (EIR/EIS)

This project intends to improve the general environment of the Los Angeles River by improving natural habitat, economic values, water quality, recreation, and open space. The study area includes several locations where the potential exists for restoring a more natural riverine environment along the Los Angeles River, while maintaining and improving levels of flood protection. Creation of treatment wetlands in and around the river, to treat effluent river flows and to restore missing linkages of fragmented habitat, would also be pursued. Restored areas would provide natural riparian habitat to support indigenous wildlife and avifauna along a corridor transecting most of the San Fernando Valley, and extending into downtown Los Angeles. Other purposes include provision of public access to the river, identification of incidental recreation space, delineation of trails, and the reinvestment in the urban system that results in economic growth.
