Authorities raided two un-permitted commercial marijuana grows in the last week. The illegal operations were shut down in rural Boulder Creek. Investigators executed search warrants on Whalbone Gulch Road and Bear Creek Road seizing about 2000 plants. Illegal firearms and ammunition along with gold and silver were confiscated. One of the grows was also water illegally diverted from Bear Creek launching an investigation to determine the extent of environmental impact from the stream diversion. At this time no arrests have been made.
