The Santa Clara River is a river, approximately 116 mi (186 km) long, in southern California in the United States.
The Santa Clara is the largest river system along the coast of Southern California and only one of two remaining river systems in the region that remain in their natural states and not channelized by concrete.
It flows along the north side of the Santa Susana Mountains and empties into the Pacific Ocean between the cities of Ventura and Oxnard, in the area designated by the state as the Santa Clara River Estuary Natural Reserve.
NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Santa Clara River (California) (493 words)
Its headwaters are near the town of Acton in Los Angeles County, on the north slope of the San Gabriel Mountains.
California is governed as a republic, with three branches of government, the executive branch consisting of the Governor of California and the other independently elected constitutional officers, the legislative branch consisting of the Assembly and Senate, and the judicial branch consisting of the Supreme Court of California and lower courts.
As the city is hemmed in by mountains on all sides (the Tehachapis on the north, the San Gabriels on the east, and the Santa Susanas on the south and west) and is primarily reliant on the automobile for transportation, it suffers from chronic smog.
