But i found the 'Delta's Endgame' to be informative and if you read the
implications you will note the battle lines are drawn.
My conclusion is S.California with 23 million residents as well significant
industry and military installations has won the first few rounds. The
governor and the Republicans in the legislature which are from the valley
also favor the all water for the south concept aswell.
So let the 'war games' begin.
Does that mean the environmentalist and the residence in the north of the
state and which is an over simplification of who will get the short end on
this issue?
When it comes to the vote on the water bond issue @9.5 billion dollars that
or the cheapo 5.5 billion alternative will pass.
But the matter will be settled because of a different reason. Their is no
snow in the mountains. Their is less and less water in Lake Mead or the
Colorado river. And it doesn't rain much in S.California.
And desalinization is limited as a source for water even if we had the fuel
for the distillation process involved.
Bottom line. Water supply diminishing as demand increases.
And for us living in the golden state this is the first issue of importance.
Who will get the water the north or the south. That's of course if their is
any water to get.
