Actually more of Gov Gray out Davis's, Clinton's Babbit, Dem Tony Coelho, help than Allah's- To Comply with posting rules in a very small part of article I offer: Cadiz Water Project
Critics Raising Concerns About Resources: The stakes are high--financially and politically--for the Santa Monica company and its proposed partner, the Metropolitan Water District.
By MICHAEL A. HILTZIK
TIMES STAFF WRITER
May 19 2002
CADIZ, Calif. -- Sometime in the next few weeks, a federal agency is expected to issue the final environmental approval necessary to turn this former Mojave Desert railroad outpost into a billion-dollar water development project.
As the culmination of a laborious five-year environmental review, that ruling from the Interior Department's Bureau of Land Management would represent a milestone for the project and for its sponsor, Cadiz Inc. The politically well-connected company, which has been growing grapes and citrus fruits on a patchwork of money-losing irrigated tracts across the San Joaquin and Coachella valleys sees the Mojave project as the linchpin of its plan to transform itself into a global water development enterprise.
The stakes are high. The project to store trillions of gallons of Colorado River water in the sands beneath Cadiz's 27,000-acre tract could earn the company about $500 million in fees over the next 50 years. Cadiz hopes it also will give it a foothold in a prospective boom market for water in California and other parched regions around the world. As a token of its ambitions, the company this year named former Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt to head a new subsidiary to pursue similar water deals in the Middle East. The Mojave project also is of great importance to Cadiz's proposed partner, the giant Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. The project would be one of the most complex and costly undertaken by the MWD. Such a financial partnership with a private corporation would be unique in the district's history. As the MWD's 37-member board prepares to take a final vote on the project, possibly this summer, some of the agency's directors are questioning whether the massive investment makes financial sense, and whether a partnership with Cadiz is appropriate for a public water district. Cadiz's ability to meet its financial obligations also is open to question. The company, whose chairman and chief executive, Keith Brackpool, once pleaded guilty to criminal charges relating to securities trading and later was forced to resign an executive post because of his outside business dealings, has never turned an annual profit. Its total losses from 1993 through 2001 come to more than $105 million.
An Abundance of Political Connections
Significantly, the source of much of Cadiz's initial $75-million capital contribution to its partnership with the MWD would be the water district itself.
What the company does have in abundance are political connections. Former Rep. Tony Coelho, an important Democratic Party fund-raiser, serves on the Cadiz board. The Democratic pedigree of the newly hired Babbitt extends from his 10 years as Arizona governor in the 1970s and '80s to his service in the Clinton Cabinet.
But by far the company's leading political contact is Gov. Gray Davis, who has named Brackpool to at least two statewide advisory panels on water resources.
Despite the company's consistent losses and the British-born Brackpool's ineligibility to vote, Cadiz and its CEO have been among Davis' leading financial contributors since 1998. Records show that the company and Brackpool contributed $134,000 to Davis' 1998 gubernatorial campaign, part of the $415,000 in total donations they made to candidates statewide. From 1999 through 2001, the company contributed an additional $101,187 to Davis' reelection campaign.
Brackpool also has hosted numerous fund-raising events for Davis and other candidates, some of them at the Manhattan Country Club in Manhattan Beach, owned by a Brackpool partnership. He said the company plans to restructure its balance sheet soon by merging its agricultural subsidiary with a company run by the wealthy Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal ibn Abdulaziz al Saud, a transaction designed to provide Cadiz with an equity infusion of as much as $80 million. (The merger has not been completed, however, and Brackpool told investors two weeks ago that it has run into some regulatory snags overseas.)
Pls note that Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal ibn Abdulaziz al Saud is the jerk off that gave a one millon dollar guilt offering to NY which Guiliani rejected.
