The facts remain that the areas of the Ballona Wetlands were designated as a State Ecological Reserve with specific language as to the protection of coastal salt marsh and freshwater marsh habitats and the species associated with these habitats. NO Land Management Plan has been prepared for the Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve since it was designated in 2005, even though some 15 million dollars have been spent through the California Coastal Conservancy to prepare a ‘restoration’ plan that is neither a ‘restoration’ nor a plan that protects the resources designated in California code to be protected at Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve.
