I wonder how the water nazi's are going to try and screw them out of it. Snow pack will be 200% of normal and the lakes will be full.

Enough water is being run down the rivers right now to supply every drop of water the state needs for the next 3 years and they have no way to store it.

This is what happens when you don't build any reservoirs for 42 years, double the population and wonder why we are short on water. The gooberments job is to do just that, build infrastructure.

Don Pedro is releasing 10,000 cfs right now. that is 86,000 gallons of water a second, 5,160,000 gallons a minute. 309,600,000 a hour, 7.4 trillion per 24 hours. The last number could be wrong, my calculator doesn't go that high.

"They" certainly love the tax revenue yet wont put pen to paper when it comes to increasing supply.

Even if they started the process to build more reservoirs - with ineptitude, lawsuits and everything in between it would be 2050 at the earliest in this state.

If you think about all the lakes that are releasing water right now the numbers are staggering.

Spend you $$ on desalinization plants...
Oh you and your common sense.
Why "work" for the people when theyre so busy playing politics? Cali politicians are corrupt as the day is long.

I wonder how many Reservoirs could be built instead of the "Train to nowhere"

Someone should start a ‘pool’. CAHSR started construction in 2015. The first phase is supposed to run from that ever popular and heavily traveled Merced to Bakersfield corridor. Eight years down the track and it’s billions over budget and hasn’t carried a single passenger. On the other hand, the nation state’s voters have passed eight billion dollars water bonds since 2000 which included water storage and nothing to show for it.
