The Muddy River Regional Environmental Impact Alleviation Committee (MRREIAC) is hard at work again clearing the banks of the Muddy River. The group, headed by Ann Schreiber, works hard to clear trees and bushes from the river banks that take precious water resources from river system.
Schreiber started working with MRREIAC in 1994, and over the last several years has created an efficient system for ridding the river banks of a non-native tree called Tamarisk, commonly known as Salt Cedar. |

Nevada Department of Forestry workers clear Tamarisk plants from the banks of the Muddy River in Moapa. The work has been contracted by the Muddy River Regional Environmental Impact Alleviation Committee led by Moapa resident Ann Schreiber. |
