Kudos to Effort to Save San Mateo Creek

Re “Native Trout in This Southland Stream Will Get a Fighting Chance to Survive,” Sept. 3:

I commend the Trout Unlimited organization for its efforts to preserve one of our most important natural habitats: San Mateo Creek, home to rare steelhead trout. The natural treasures that call the area home depend on clean water from the San Mateo Creek watershed not affected by development. Our quality of life in Orange County and that of future generations are closely linked to this important source of clean water, clean air and open space.
