Box 47 <br /> Yountville, California 94599 �'-�c.•1Lf:-�= <br /> February 24 , 1992 <br /> Dear Sir: <br /> It has come to our attention that the Santa Fe Railroad has created <br /> a possible threat to fish and wildlife in the Orwood area between <br /> Old Middle River and Orwood in the Sacramento delta waterways. <br /> The Santa Fe Railroad is rebuilding a wooden bridge that runs down <br /> the middle of the delta and the residue creosote treated lumber and <br /> pilings are left alongside the bridge. High tides wash some of the <br /> treated wood into the delta and the rest is covered by the delta <br /> at other times. It may be that this excessive treated lumber left <br /> in the delta may cause a threat to fish and wildlife in the area. <br /> Our second concern is the removal or damage to beaver dams located <br /> near the bridge. Some have already been damaged and the one <br /> remaininc_r dam that has been there for years is in immediate danger <br /> from the construction crews. <br /> Please advise if anything can be done by your department to stop <br /> the polluting of the delta and possible damage to the one remaining <br /> beaver dam in that area. <br /> ,.inc rely/yrs, <br /> R y E.
