    The water has to go down before they can add them, if they add them. That's what they told me months ago. They aren't doing it to keep it open, it's so they can reopen it sooner once the water comes in.

    NOAA said Cali has about a year's worth of water left. If the drought persists past that, DVL won't be the only dry lake in the area. Ready to go to South Carolina yet Dev?

    We need a catastrophic failure in water storage to

    A. WAKE UP CALIFORNIA ON WATER USAGE

    B. CALIfORNIA TO REALIZE IT'S CURRENT WATER STORAGE IS INSUFFICIENT

    C. EQUALIZE THE POWER THE ENVIROS HAVE ON WATER CAPACITY AND IT'S USAGE..

    (Assuming it ever does rain and snow again)


    it's not what you want to hear but they are realities

    Since the drought is limited to just the southern half of the state I think we should reconsider spending 60 BILLION on high speed rail. For much less money we could revamp the whole water delivery system and recoup a bunch of the water being dumped back into the Pacific Ocean north of us..... and save the smelt in the process.

    Interesting times a coming. Water rationing, higher fees and fines, neighbors snitching on violators. Agriculture industry crippled, agricultural workers, agricultural support companies and agricultural supported communities decimated. Recreation and tourist businesses and communities that depend on water sport visitors harmed. BLM and forest areas closed due to high fire hazard and just wait until the Santa Ana winds blow after a hot, dry summer. Hydroelectric generated electricity reduced and compounded by the closing of San Onofre. Wildlife intrusion into developed areas due to loss of water and forage. But the Smelt will be saved. Interesting times indeed.
