Environmentalists will convene at Mt. Diablo to celebrate California's conservation achievements.
"Saturday's celebration will kick off a string of events, known collectively as Celebrate Mount Diablo 2001, that will speak of the year's significance in the mountain's history.In July, surveyors will gather on the mountain to commemorate 150 years since the peak was established as the 'initial point' from which base and meridian lines used in official surveys originate. To this day, these lines are referred to in legal descriptions of real estate in two-thirds of California, as well as parts of Nevada and Oregon."
