Court FROM PAGE 7 Trout and salmon that test positive are safe for hu- man consumption. The quarantined fish cannot be released into the wild, but will be euthanized and used for food fish, the article says. The depart- ment is working with area food banks to arrange do- nation of the fish. A planned children's fishing event at the Mt. Shasta hatchery this weekend will be held. The whirling disease par- asite is naturally present in some streams and rivers in California. Hatchery out- breaks are unusual — there have been none in Northern California for two decades. "This is a bitter pill to swallow," said Stafford Lehr, Fisheries Branch chief, in the article. "We have raised and nurtured these trout to provide fishing opportunity. It's heartbreaking. We are committed to take whatever steps necessary to eradicate this disease and bring these hatcheries back online." The infection is thought to have entered Darrah Springs through the water source supplying a portion of the hatchery, which is in the Bat- tle Creek watershed, the arti- cle says. It can also be trans- mitted by fish-eating birds and river otters. The possi- bility the parasite came from nearbywatersknowntohave whirling disease is likely, due to drought conditions that cause wildlife to move to available water sources. Until testing is complete the exact number of fish ex- posed to and infected with the disease is unknown. Once the infected fish are euthanized, the impacted areas of the hatcheries will be cleaned and brought back into production as soon as possible, the site says.

Stoich Character Award for Courtesy to Cody Loper, who also served as the graduation's master of ceremonies, Thursday at the Centennial High School and Corning High School Independent Study graduation ceremony at the Corning Veterans Memorial Hall. Teacher Caleb Fleming gave the faculty speech. He spoke about a study by An- dre Erickson that said it takes about 10,000 hours to be really good at something. Fleming proceeded to tell the story of a man who was broke and wanted to not only write his own script for a movie, but star in it. The man went to 1,500 produc- ers, even traveled to other countries and at one point sold his dog for $25 because he was so broke. That man was Sylves- ter Stallone and the movie was "Rocky," Fleming said. Eventually he was given $325,000 to make the movie and $35,000 to star in it. From that he paid $15,000 to get his dog back. Those graduating Thurs- day will need the strong support of their family, friends and community, Fleming said. "They need someone to tell them 'I think you have a little more to give' when they want to give up," Flem- ing said. "I'd encourage you to be that base of support and encourage them. They have great things to do." Grads FROM PAGE 1 By Elliot Spagat The Associated Press SANDIEGO A proposed bal- lot measure unveiled Thurs- day would aim to reduce government pension spend- ing for state and local em- ployees in the nation's most populous state by requiring voters to approve new ben- efits. Former San Diego Coun- cilman Carl DeMaio and for- mer San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed will try to tap the same sense of unease that led vot- ers in those cities to approve pension-cutting plans in 2012. Their measure would apply to state, county and city employees throughout California, as well as pub- lic schools and universities and other local boards and agencies. The campaign could become the latest high- profile showdown over taxpayer-funded retirement funds. Supporters say pension liabilities will keep libraries closed, leave potholes unfilled and deprive residents of key public services. Opponents say the cost-cutting measures deprive workers of rights gained at the bargaining table and make crucial jobs less attractive to potential recruits. The proposal would re- quire voters to approve de- fined benefits for new hires and pension increases for existing workers. Voters also would have to green-light a government that pays more than half of pension contri- butions for new hires. "We're not making the de- cision on what type of plan will be implemented," said DeMaio, now a San Diego ra- dio host. "We're simply say- ing, going forward, voters will have a seat at the table." Pension obligations fig- ured prominently in the city of Stockton's decision in 2012 to become the na- tion's largest city to seek bankruptcy protection un- til Detroit filed for it two years ago. Attorney General Ka- mala Harris must craft a title and short summary before backers can begin collecting 585,407 voter sig- natures to qualify for the November 2016 ballot. The number of signatures — based on turnout in the last statewide election in 2014 — is a relatively low threshold and is expected to produce a crowded ballot topped by the U.S. presidential race. Reed's last attempt to cut pensions through a statewide vote in 2014 fiz- zled when a state court re- jected his challenge to the attorney general's descrip- tion of the measure. Reed contended that Harris' lan- guage cast the measure in a negative light and ham- pered his ability to col- lect signatures. The former mayor dropped his bid after the legal setback. Unions have battled re- peatedly with DeMaio, a Republican who lost bids for San Diego mayor in 2012 and Congress in 2014, and Reed, a Democrat who was forced from office last year by term limits. "This is yet another des- tined-to-fail attempt to eliminate the retirement security of teachers, fire- fighters, school bus driv- ers and other public em- ployees they have earned and agreed to in good faith at the bargaining table," said Dave Low, chairman of Californians for Retire- ment Security, a group that says it represents 1.6 mil- lion public employees and retirees. DeMaio said organiz- ers plan to collect between 650,000 and 750,000 signa- tures and raise $2.5 million to $3.5 million for the signa- ture-gathering drive. Reed said backers haven't begun accepting contributions. CALIFORNIA WORKERS Measure would cut government spending on public pensions RICH PEDRONCELLI — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE Former San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed speaks about public employee pensions at the Sacramento Press Club. The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO Misman- agement of state water net- works has brought some vi- tal native fish species close to extinction during the California drought, envi- ronmental organizations and a sports-fishing group claimed in a federal lawsuit filed Thursday. The lawsuit, by the Cali- fornia Sportfishing Protec- tion Association and others, accuses the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and the State Water Resources Control Board of violating environ- mental laws in divvying up diminishing flows of wa- ter through the delta of the Sacramento and San Joa- quin rivers. Bureau of Reclamation spokesman Louis Moore in Sacramento said federal officials had no immedi- ate comment. State water board officials did not im- mediately return requests for comment. "The environmental well-being of the five delta counties' 4-million resi- dents is tied to a healthy delta, but our comments and protests" to water offi- cials were ignored, Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla, head of Restore the Delta, a non- profit organization and a plaintiff in the case, said in a statement. The suit came as state of- ficials pull back harder yet on state taps while Cali- fornia moves into another summer in its driest four- year period on record. Man- datory water conservation by cities and towns begins this month. State officials have said they also expect to order further water cuts by farmers and others in coming days. In their statement, the environmental and sports- fishing groups renewed ac- cusations that state and federal water regulators were skewing water distri- bution from the two main state and federal water net- works in California in favor of farmers over delta resi- dents, fishermen and wild- life. Drying, warming water- ways in California's drought have brought one key spe- cies, the Delta smelt, to what biologists warn is the brink of extinction, the groups said. More than 95 percent of recent genera- tions of Chinook salmon are dying in state water- ways, the lawsuit adds.
