Stanford University -- a center for research on ecology and the environment -- is now facing a lawsuit from environmentalists. Searsville Dam is located at Jasper Ridge, a nature preserve on Stanford's campus. An attorney for two Bay Area environmental groups says the dam is keeping Central California Coast steelhead from the upper reaches of San Francisquito Creek. A Stanford spokeswoman says the dam itself has created a wetland area above it, which supports many species. Reporter: Molly Samuel
