Environmentalists and Activists are not giving up hope after a state agency's decision to allow homes to be constructed on the Bolsa Chica mesa near Huntington Beach, California. Orange County officials and preservationists stated that they are planning to seek funds from the State of California to purchase the approximately 200 acres owned by Hearthside Homes, the developer. Environmentalists say that the preservation of the mesa is crucial to protection of the Bolsa Chica wetlands from urban runoff.
