At the November
Southwestern Herpetologists Society (SWHS) meeting, the current state of Chatsworth Reservoir was brought up. This local area is also part of the society's
Junior Herpers program.
A land transaction is being proposed with the intent of wetlands restoration; however, the underlying impacts of allowing public access and potential lack of suitable maintenance, may in the end jeopardize the area's local animal and plant life and compromise its natural state.
