T...They get ecstatic about storms, drought or not. There will never be enough rain to keep reservoirs full as long as the population keeps swelling and several northern California reservoirs are only holding tanks for water to be shipped south to keep SoCal reservoirs full. Read Tom Steinstra columns for details. <br /><br />And they're making a big deal how various counties haven't met their water conservation goals. Again, with increased population, likely we'll never meet year over year conservation percentages. There's only so much you can cut back and still take care of basic living and sanitation needs. And with more people to feed, you need more food production which takes water, whether it's in your own backyard on on a big farm in the central valley somewhere. Much of this water stuff is political - which voting bloc to keep pacified -- big agricultural, southern california where a lot of votes are, environmentalists concerned about the overall health of the rivers, fish, etc. So by continually reminding us that no matter how much it rains there's still a drought keeps the political maneuvering undercover. With drought conditions, where is the water for the delta tunnels gonna come from? Don't question that. Just keep saying drought and people voted for it. The tunnels don't produce water.voternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-69826020941329665412014-12-04T10:46:35.908-08:002014-12-04T10:46:35.908-08:00If the rain keeps up, the walnut creek fountain co...If the rain keeps up, the walnut creek fountain could overflow.
