Talk:California Wild and Scenic Rivers Act

Untitled
Hi Colton! Here are some of my notes from our first peer review.

- For your first section (California Wild and Scenic River Act), I would suggest linking a Wikipedia page or an external cite for the National Wild and Scenic Rivers Act - I really liked how you put the purpose of the act and defined key terms - Maybe you could find a bit more history/background on the act itself and then in a separate section you could do “Comparing and Contrasting the National and California Wild and Scenic Rivers Act” - The table with all the rivers is a really good addition, I like it a lot! - I might suggest discussing drought in California and maybe if this act/authorizing environment has any sort of water management set in place - Talk about what the pros of this act are? What might become of our rivers if this act was never put into place - Maybe add some background and statistics of California’s rivers “California has approximately 189,454 miles of river, of which 1,999.6 miles are designated as wild and scenic - 1% of the state’s river miles” (I got this from the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System https://www.rivers.gov/california.php)

Overall, I think your draft is really good! I personally didn’t know anything about the National and California acts, so this was very informative! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gabriellagp (talk • contribs) 04:33, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
