Over the past year, our committee has heard a recurring theme in hearings that predation is a key stressor in efforts to protect fish listed...

H.R. 4582 eliminates the doubling requirement established by the Central Valley Project Improvement Act of 1992 (CVPIA) for striped bass.

We must stop the crazy cycle of spending money on both the fish we want to save and the fish that kill them.

We strongly support H.R. 4582, and appreciate your ongoing efforts to curb the effects of predation on the salmon population.
