How the Delta Goes, so Goes California’s Water
Download
Southern California doesn’t get the majority of its water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, but the region and the state as a whole are still dependent on management of the massive watershed east of the San Francisco Bay. The Governor is putting forward a package of legislation that promises a dramatic makeover for the hurting Delta region, including ecological restoration and a very controversial peripheral canal. Is there a way to please farmers, fishermen and drinkers of California’s water in these increasingly dry times?
