Inset right:the bumper 2013 migration brings a bounty to all parkway life.Story and Photos bySusan Maxwell Skinnersacramento region, CA (MPG)- For millennia, the AmericanRiver has been a passage for animaland human migration. Thisfall, salmon migration has turnedthe waterway into a freeway oflove.In what is shaping up to be thebest run for six years (2008 to2009 numbers were so low thatriver and ocean salmon fishingwere outlawed ) adult Chinookare now heading up-river tocomplete their lifecycle. For thepast two weeks, many thousandsof spawners per day have surgedthrough Sacramento, Carmichael,Fair Oaks and Gold River.Leaping, knifing river surfaceslike jet skis, climbing overgravel banks – or just swimmingCity Permit TechnicianWins ScholarshipRancho Cordova, CA (MPG) - For the secondyear in a row, Denise Reese, a buildingpermit technician with the City of RanchoCordova, has been awarded the $500 BobStoddard Scholarship by the SacramentoValley Association of Building Officials(SVABO).Reese is currently enrolled in the BuildingInspection Technology (BIT) certificationprogram at Consumnes River College. Shewill complete requirements for the BITprogram at the end of December but willcontinue her education to earn an Associatein Science degree. Her long-term goal is tobecome a plan reviewer.Reese started at the City in 2006, workingas an administrative secretary in the CityManager’s Office. After serving as a customerservice specialist for that office andthe Building and Safety Division, she begandoggedly to their destiny – thefish have no focus other thanto reach the waters where theyspawned. Whether they mate ingravel beds or are perfunctorilyrelieved of eggs and milt at theNimbus hatchery, they will allbe dead within weeks.Fish that hatched four yearsago now measure up to four feetand can weigh 50 pounds. Allbear scars of a long trek from thePacific. The krill diet that coloredtheir flesh is hundreds milesbehind; they have not eaten forweeks. By the time they reachSan Juan Rapids, degeneratingflesh has absorbed much of theirscales. Decay mottles their sides.Some fish have turned vividmagenta in color. Hooked jawsand dog-like teeth transformmale profiles. But to Chinookhens, such cruising gargoyles areprinces. Though the act will killthem, these fish mean to mate.In full fury during November,the salmon run continues throughDecember and – in dwindlingnumbers -- until after Christmas.Experts predict up to 50,000salmon may run this season.“It’s a good number,” observesCalifornia Fish and Wildlifescientist Bob Titus. “The departmentwill count carcasses forweeks to make a population estimate,but it looks like stock iscontinuing to rebuild.”With runs of less than 6000 fishrecorded six years ago, Chinooktraining as a permit technician in 2009.She currently helps customers with permittingquestions and issues, processesresidential and commercial applicationand permits, and coordinates building planreviews and inspections, in addition to otherBuilding and Safety Division tasks.“Being awarded the scholarship is anaccomplishment that makes me feel great;plus it helps with school expenses,” shesaid.The scholarship is named for Stoddard,a long-time SVABO member who wasdevoted to the work of quality codes anduniform enforcement and a strong supporterof building code enforcement education.Although there can be more than one scholarshipawarded, Reese is on the only 2013winner.HSource: City of Rancho Cordovaextinction in the American Riverseemed possible.

Benjamin McGrewof Managewest, Inc. to levythose assets. McGrew generated$480,000 for restitution from thesale of a Folsom residence, severalvehicles, and the liquidation ofbank accounts.Supervising Deputy DistrictAttorney Michael Blazina, whoprosecuted the case, stated, “Inmany embezzlement cases victimsdo not get their money back.Fortunately in this case, not all ofthe stolen money was squanderedand several properties still existedwith sufficient value. Although thelibrary is not yet made whole for itsloss, a significant part of the taxpayers’money is being returned to theagency from which it was wrongfullytaken.”A check will be presented tothe Sacramento Public LibraryAuthority located at 828 I Street onThursday, November 21st at 3:00p.m.HSource: Office of the DistrictAttorneyDenise Reese helps Rancho Cordova customers with permit questions and applicationsand coordinates building plan reviews and inspections.
