The West Coast will be dry with the Pacific Northwest turning warmer.

"We have determined that unprecedented con- ditions over the past few weeks in the lower Klam- ath River require us to take emergency measures to help reduce the poten- tial for a large-scale fish die-off," U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Regional Di- rector David Murillo said Friday from Sacramento, California. Murillo added that fall chinook have been enter- ing the lower Klamath River earlier than nor- mal to spawn, and the se- vere drought has produced low and warm water con- ditions similar to those in the 2002 fish die-off. During that time, disease quickly spread through fish bunched together in low and warm pools be- fore fall rains raised the river so they could move upstream. Some estimates put the toll at more than 60,000 adult salmon. To prevent the spread of disease, reduce the overall stress on fish from warm water, and inspire salmon to start moving upriver, extra water releases start Saturday morning from Lewiston Dam on the Trin- ity River, the biggest tribu- tary of the Klamath. NORTHERN CALIFORNIA Agency to release extra water for Klamath salmon By Tracy Seipel Bay Area News Group Health insurance com- panies in California can no longer sell health care plans that discriminate against women by limiting or excluding abortion cov- erage, Gov. Jerry Brown's administration said Fri- day. The Department of Managed Health Care is- sued letters to seven in- surance companies say- ing it had erroneously ap- proved such language in policies "covering a very small fraction of Califor- nia health plan enrollees.'' The letter confirmed that the state Constitu- tion as well as "multi- ple California judicial decisions'' prohibit such discrimination against women who choose to have abortions. "All health plans must treat maternity services and legal abortion neu- trally,'' Michelle Rouillard, the department's director, said in the two-page letter. She said the decision becomes effective on Fri- day. The controversial is- sue surfaced last year af- ter administrations at Santa Clara University and Loyola Marymount University in Los Ange- les, both Jesuit schools, decided to drop health in- surance coverage of elec- tive abortions. The decision led to up- roar among staff and fac- ulty at each institution. The president of The Catholic League for Reli- gious and Civil Rights im- mediately issued a state- ment Friday saying that Catholic universities "have a right and a duty to up- hold the tenets of their faith in everything they do. "Paying for abortions is in direct conflict with the teachings of the Cath- olic Church,'' Bill Donohue said in the statement. "Not only is this deci- sion morally obscene, it violates the religious lib- erties of Catholic insti- tutions. The universities should now sue on First Amendment grounds. Per- haps a judge can educate the Brown administra- tion on the need to keep church and state sepa- rate.''
