Here's a great way to get involved in Los Angeles River protection and restoration efforts. Become an active part of the Arroyo Seco Stream Team. We are working to restore steelhead and other native fish to the LA River and the Arroyo Seco watershed.
The Arroyo Seco, a major watershed in Pasadena, La Canada, Altadena and Northeast Los Angeles, has received awards for a dynamic approach to watershed management and river restoration. We've even restored native fish to the stream near the Rose Bowl!
After training, Arroyo Seco Stream Team members can get involved in projects such as water quality sampling, mapping habitat, exotic pest plants and other stream conditions, cleanups of trash, debris and invasive plants, or working in our native plant nursery.
The Stream Team will also serve as watershed ambassadors, educating stakeholders and the general public about their watershed, a key tributary of the Los Angeles River, and how to be good stewards.

The Arroyo Seco Alliance (ASA) is dedicated to protecting and promoting the Arroyo Seco watershed. ASA advocates an integrated, harmonious approach to watershed and flood management, water conservation, habitat enhancement as well as the expansion of recreational opportunities.
