In the upper Feather River watershed, 24 miles of water- ways were cleared of garbage in Quincy, Chester, Graeagle and Portola. Eighteen Plumas Charter School students and staff jump-started efforts during the school week cleaning up Spanish Creek at the Oakland Camp Bridge, the Middle Fork Feather River along the Portola River Walk, and the North Fork Feather River in Chester Park. Six dedicated Trout Unlim- ited volunteers led the charge in Graeagle along the Middle Fork Feather River, while Chester volunteers cleaned up along the North Fork Feather River and around Lake Almanor, and Quincy volunteers hit the banks of SPanish, Boyle and Gansner creeks. Ninety-two bags of waste were shoved in Dumpsters sponsored by Sierra Pacific Industries, Plumas National Forest Mt. Hough Ranger District and Millworks in Graeagle. A total of 1,350 Feather River College Environmental Studies Department student Scott Linhart and staff member Darrel Jury help install a pet waste station along the bike path in Quincy.
