I'll ask you like I have asked others.

What water storage projects in CA need to be built that are not being built?

You can't include Los Vaqueros, Sites Reservoir, Temperance Flat Dam and Shasta because those are already being addressed.

Nor can you include Ah Pah, Auburn, or two more dams on the Colorado River because those were rejected many, many decades ago.

Which leads you to the next question, will new water storage projects solve the current problems caused by the drought?

You put too much stock in what you think about what I think, frankly. California has already become an import user over what they can internally develop sustain.

Reservoirs? Try getting past the econuts on that. Try getting anything worthwhile past them to solve the problems. Desalinization plants, nuclear or anything except wind turbines that kill endangered Condors (that’s a good excuse).

Colorado River? Yeah. It borders CA/NV but after Meade and ending in MX to the sea it’s not so big, is it? It virtually disappears in Mexico. There is actually an internet link that shows what it looked like when the river actually reached the ocean.

I could give a crap about what happens to California or any other rabidly liberal state (by majority voting and government control standards).
