Grand jury finds no felony charges in Valley Fire case
Lake County District Attorney Don Anderson says the grand jury determined that John Alfred Pinch and Parker Charles Mills should not face felony charges related to the 2015 Valley Fire. The decision notes possible minor offenses and cites insufficient evidence of a direct link between wiring and the fire, with civil liability risk mentioned for later action.

Eel River Chinook Run Faces Habitat Decline and Recovery
ERRP notes degraded habitats slow salmon migration with few deep pools and warm water hindering passage. 2016 counts show 2,000 to 3,000 early Chinook moving upriver before rains, followed by a second pulse of 10,000 to 15,000 spawners as tributaries lit up. Recovery credited to main channel gains, ongoing rains, and favorable conditions, while declines persist in Tomki Creek and several tributaries. Recommendations urge habitat restoration, reach-scale planning, and collaboration with agencies to improve spawning flows and quantify salmon presence.
