A. Public Trust Lawsuit, 1979-1988

Scope and Content Note

Brought before the Mono County Superior Court by the National Audubon Society (NAS), Mono Lake Committee (MLC), and others in 1979. The Public Trust Suit is the cornerstone of the legal efforts to protect Mono Lake. The Suit charged that the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power's (LADWP) water diversions violated the "Public Trust Doctrine." In 1983, the California Supreme Court ruled that the state has an obligation to protect places such as Mono Lake "as far as feasible," even if this means reconsidering past water allocation decisions. The court also ruled that the courts and the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) have concurrent jurisdiction in cases of this kind.

B. Rush Creek Lawsuit, 1919-1990

Scope and Content Note

Brought before the Inyo County Superior Court against LADWP by the Mammoth Fly Rodders in 1984 and later joined by the MLC, NAS, and California Trout (Cal Trout). The suit charged that LADWP's diversions violated the Public Trust Doctrine, California Fish and Game codes, and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In 1984 the court issued a temporary restraining order requiring LADWP to release 19 cubic feet per second (cfs) into lower Rush Creek. In 1985, the Mono County Superior Court issued a preliminary injunction that required LADWP to continue to release a flow of 19 cfs into Rush Creek to protect public trust resources.

C. Water Mandate I/ Cal Trout I Lawsuit, 1985-1989

Scope and Content Note

Brought before the Third District Court of Appeals in 1985 against the SWRCB by MLC, NAS, and Cal Trout. The plaintiffs argued that LADWP's state-granted water diversion licenses on Rush, Lee Vining, Walker, and Parker Creeks violated Fish and Game codes. In 1989, the court ruled that the SWRCB must bring LADWP's licenses into compliance with the Fish and Game codes. In that same year, the California Supreme Court turned down LADWP's motion to review the Appellate Court decision.

D. Lee Vining Creek Lawsuit, 1978-1990

Scope and Content Note

Brought before the Mono County Superior Court by the MLC in 1986 on the same grounds as the Rush Creek Lawsuit. The court granted a temporary restraining order that required LADWP to release a flow of up to 10 cfs into Lee Vining Creek. In 1987, the court issued a preliminary injunction that required LADWP to continue to release a flow of 4-5 cfs into Rush Creek to protect public trust resources.

E. Coordinated Proceedings, 1989-1996

Scope and Content Note

In 1989, the Public Trust suit, the Rush Creek suit, the Water Mandate suit, and the Lee Vining Creek suit were coordinated into one proceeding and moved to El Dorado County Superior Court, with Judge Terrance Finney presiding. The court agreed to rule on motions brought by MLC and NAS for interim relief for Mono Lake. The court also granted a preliminary injunction for a period of one year to halt the lake's decline and stabilize the level of Mono Lake at 6,377 feet above seal level. At the request of the SWRCB, the court stayed the Mono Lake litigation for four years to allow the SWRCB to conduct an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and subsequent hearing to recondition LADWP's water rights licenses to comply with the Public Trust Doctrine and Fish and Game codes. In 1990, directed by the Third District Court of Appeals under the Cal Trout II lawsuit (see below), the El Dorado Superior Court set interim flows for Rush, Lee Vining, Parker, and Walker Creeks and ordered LADWP to "help re-establish the conditions that benefited the fisheries prior to 1941." After a 40-day evidentiary hearing in 1991, Judge Finney granted the motion by MLC and NAS to renew the preliminary injunction requiring Mono Lake to be maintained at an elevation of 6,377 feet until the completion of the SWRCB process to amend LADWP's licenses and until all legal appeals of that decision are exhausted.

1. Civil Nos. 2284/2288, 1989-1996

F. Water Mandate II/ Cal Trout II Lawsuit, 1989-1992

Scope and Content Note

In 1990, the MLC, NAS and Cal Trout returned to the Third District Court of Appeals because the SWRCB did not act as ordered. The court ordered immediate compliance and mandated that the historic fisheries on all four streams be restored.

1. 3 Civ. No. C007123, 1989-1992

G. Water Board Hearings, 1990-1994

Scope and Content Note

On September 28, 1994, the SWRCB issued the landmark Decision 1631 (D-1631) amending LADWP's water diversion licenses in the Mono Basin. The purpose of the Water Board's decision was twofold: to comply with Fish and Game Codes 5937 & 5946, and to protect public trust values at Mono Lake as ordered by the California Supreme Court in 1983. D-1631 calls for a lake level of 6,392 feet, which will take about 20 years to achieve. During this period, some diversions will be allowed to Los Angeles. Once the lake reaches 6,392 feet, LADWP will be able to divert an average of 31,000 acre-feet of water, or about 1/3 of Los Angeles' historical diversion from the Mono Basin. The difference will be more than made up for by replacement water supplies. D-1631 orders LADWP to develop plans to restore waterfowl and stream habitat damaged as a result of diversions, and to pay implementation costs associated with the restoration.
