Take Action - Don't Raise the Dam and Flood the Merced River

Image from Planiglobe

A very important action alert from American Rivers.

The Merced River is in danger from a bill trying to de-designate it as a protected Wild and Scenic river in order to raise a dam.

The bill [HR 934] would mark the first time a federal Wild and Scenic River is essentially de-designated for the purpose of raising a dam. It's a terrible precedent that could affect Wild and Scenic Rivers everywhere — and we need to stop it.

Please take action today
