What evidence is the State Water Board using to demonstrate that salmonids have historically inhabited specific streams – year round or seasonal waterways – thereby making them subject to the policy?

The draft policy’s provisions apply to all streams and tributaries regardless of whether salmonids are present or not. As explained above in the response to question 4, however, the draft policy’s requirements are different for fish-bearing streams and non-fish bearing streams. The draft policy provides guidance for determining how far upstream fish have been present on any stream, either currently or historically, and year-round or seasonally.

This guidance allows the water right applicant to rely on existing biological studies or surveys, knowledge of stream gradient, presence of impassable barriers to fish migration, or habitat-based stream surveys. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
