| | Lower Putah, Putah-Cache Circumdrive (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | In spite of its homely and somewhat vestigial nature, there is a rich biodiversity in this stretch of the creek—rich enough to prompt the formation of a local volunteer group, the Putah Creek Council, to seek ways of restoring and protecting the creek. |
 | | One main thrust of the council is to seek adequate flow levels downstream from Berryessa Reservoir and the Solano diversion dam to protect the ecosystems and public trust resources of the creek. |
 | | At this very spot there is considerable potential to demonstrate for the rest of the state just how to operate water impoundments and diversions for the most sustainable, long term benefit for all parties involved, human and otherwise (including those animals and plants who can not speak on their own behalf). |
