Important read on how neutral regulators are being challenged by the Newsom Administration in California. Sadly, Newsom criticizes Trump for such actions, yet mimics the behavior.

The Restore the Delta team, next gen, is worth major investment. I have never worked with a more dedicated team. They are the guardians of the estuary. And they are building the future of the region with restoration of water, land, and people with expertise unmatched by any other regional org.

Sad that the Newsom Administration is trying to setup tunnel planning as a done deal for next Governor with a ballooning deficit, and more Californians in need than ever. The Delta tunnel won’t deliver more water with climate change, unless the State plan is to deplete Nor Cal rivers of all life.
