They breached a hydroelectric dam as they insist we drive EVs!
All they had to do was drain the da sand then use high explosives to blow out the middle section of the dam and the river would have taken care of the rest. This is just a grifting leftist money-laundering scheme.
I'm thinking of PG&E as yet another Democrat money-laundering operation.
Exactly
It’s corruption for sure.
[[will reach $800-million dollars, not the $450-million cost estimate projected over tens years ago]]
Gee- didn’t see that coming /s
Not to say PG&E don’t get their share of pork, I don’t see them involved here. I did not see them mentioned in the article. Maybe I missed it.
California is dying. Get out while you can.
From the article:
“River gauges down-river from the breached dams showed zero (0) dissolved oxygen for days. The only organisms that arguably survived and will take full advantage of such an event are the anaerobic organisms.
The Klamath River became a classic ‘dead zone‘ and even the heartiest creatures, such as the native Klamath River crayfish and sculpin were decimated among millions of fish killed, including trout, sucker fish, sturgeon and others in the lakes and down river. Coastal mollusks will be inundated with these toxin carrying sediments.
...
The release of the sediments containing concentrated phosphates and nitrates that had been sequestered in clay-mud and into the Klamath River, adversely impacted the water quality on the River. And when combined with epic turbidity by the clay-mud sediments, it had a catastrophic impact, creating a river of death.
All of the fish eggs in the redds from the fall cohort of salmon and trout in the main-stem of Klamath River below Iron gate dam and down river are now covered in clay silt and dead. Adult salmonoids and trout in the River are also dead.”
But the salmon runs are safe, at least...
Unfortunately states are true democracies. Our favorite vacation was WA, OR, NorCal. Our cat is named after the Rogue River.
I wish we could save it, but states are mobacracies.
The onlt hope would be to attract enough constitutionalists to the area. It’s too late for that after covid tyranny. There are satanic idols in Iowas capital building.
We lost it, at least you are somewhere with a nice view of the end.
‘California is dying. Get out while you can.’
I left California in 2012, moved back to Oregon 35 miles away and gave the property to my kids ..I was old and moved to town because I was tired of fighting wildfire.
Then in 2020 Portland anarchists burned my entire community. I’m still trying to get back home.
Now the place I worked so hard to leave my family is gone too. 76 years of sweat and tears ALL GONE.
“least you are somewhere with a nice view of the end.”
Did you see the pictures??
It’s a hellscape that will never recover

I remember Jeff _____(?) and the Klamath protests from the late 90s.
I was speaking of them as a common mechanism these days. I should have been more clear.
We worked very hard and made absolutely no difference.
Lots of animals trapped in mud from the flooding are being shot. That’s not I the news.
OMG, how awful! I’m very sorry to hear this. We moved away from Denver area (a wreck now) and lucked into an incredible spot, took two moves though. I hope your luck changes soon, best wishes! I understand ‘late’, I’m 75 soon. I meditate on and visualize what I want, seems to help.

You are not by yourself.

I know. The DC Chapter did a lot as well.
People’s ears are closed.
Yes, to put them out of their misery
