On October 15th, 2020, Jessica Matthews, Program Director of the Mount Shasta Bioregional Ecology Center sent a letter to the Siskiyou County Supervisors, the Mount Shasta Parks and Recreation District and the Mount Shasta Trail Association in regards to the Master Plan of Lake Siskiyou.
After hearing a presentation at their August Board meeting by ecological landscape architect, Tom Hesseldenz, The Ecology Center penned the suggestions which they think will further enrich Lake Siskiyou as a healthy & biodiverse water system, further it as place for recreation enthusiasts of all types that will generate sustainable ecotourism along with suggestions that will make it a safer place to visit with upgrades to roads, parking areas, and railings, to name a few.
