CDFW took ~270 Steelhead out of Topanga Creek in advance of a forecasted "mortality event" from burn zone runoff. The fish were
taken to Fillmore fish hatchery and will be returned to Topanga or other creeks when possible.
The Topanga Creek Steelhead are said to be last population in that area, per the article.
