We previously circulated the March 17 Sacramento Bee editorial (“Scope and impact of Delta twin tunnels is starting to hit home“) and wanted you to see the March 24 article by Matt Weiser (below). There is also an excellent opinion piece responding to the Bee editorial – click to view.
Please note in the Weiser article, that it isn’t until the end that the public’s options to intercede in the tunnel madness are disclosed. As we have been telling you for the past few years, lawsuits are what is left when the political machine is beholden to wealthy water pirates and is attached to old engineering dreams (the voters shot the “canal” down in 1982). As the article notes, if the California legislature acts, a referendum is again possible as it was in 1982.
You and your family, neighbors, and colleagues will make ALL the difference as we move to protect the Sacramento River watershed’s rivers, streams, and groundwater. Stay involved and spread the word!
