Tree staff and commissioners push for Vina GSA review after consultant memo omits Bidwell Park as a groundwater-dependent ecosystem
Tree division staff and commissioners questioned a technical memo that does not classify Bidwell Park as groundwater dependent and asked the Vina Groundwater Sustainability Agency or consultant ESA to present corrected data; staff pointed to differing rooting-depth figures for valley oak (18 ft in the memo vs. 28.2 ft in peer-reviewed studies).
