You are exactly right. There are farms in the valley ( mostly almonds ) that only exist because of delta water. Near Madera there are farms that are drawing water from 400+ feet down. The cost is very expensive so they rather buy delta water and they pay a steep price. The governor and state agencies want to go ahead with the tunnel
( used to be tunnels ) but because of the backlash they lessened it to one tunnel. Still there are many associations against it so at this time it is tied up in the courts. There have been no Delta Smelt found in I believe 2 years.

Feel free to consider me 100.00% wrong again.

Seems to me when he took office he had a Democratic Senate and a Democratic House and could have done anything but what did he do used his executive power to over turn all the executive powers that the previous administration had enacted to control the border. It is totally on his or some ones shoulders because I don’t think he is running the administration.

California Delta - Ecosystem Degradation - Is this documentary accurate?

Scariest part to me was the apparent negative impact on the whole Delta ecosystem, not just the fish.
Waiting for someone from the area to comment.

I have not lived in Northern California for very long but I listen to Bob Sims outdoor life program on Saturday mornings and he talks about all the water that comes down the Sacramento River that is diverted and goes south. He says the delta does not get cleaned out because much of the water that is diverted. That is why most of the fishing associations are against the tunnel idea. It will yet divert more of the water south.

You have lived a very interesting life. I have enjoyed experiencing some of it with you. The positive and the negatives. It amazes me your recollection of a lot of it and your description of it. Like many others on here we look forward to the next. Also the comparison of life as you describe from years past, to today, explains how far we have come in most instances.

Thanks Wulffy, the brain is flashing back as I type.

Have a friend that is kicking himself to this day because when he was a kid he put a new Babe Ruth card on his bike to make the noise.
