Ebmud

The East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) provides essential water and wastewater services to 1.4 million residents in the East Bay region of California. Recently, EBMUD partnered with California State University, Chico, to uncover a significant trove of fossils in the Mokelumne River watershed, shedding light on the area’s ancient ecological history.

This remarkable discovery, including fossils from species such as mastodons and ancient camels, highlights the dynamic natural history of the Sierra Nevada foothills and enhances the understanding of North America's biotic evolution. The partnership allows students and researchers to engage in field studies and contribute to fossil preservation efforts, ensuring that this invaluable resource is protected for future generations.
