(68,644 posts)I've been a part of the water wars of the golden state since childhood, when my grandmother supplemented the household income by collecting samples of river water for the state. The proposed peripheral canal was under consideration that long ago, 50 years.
We can't have a healthy delta AND please the ranchers in former deserts in the south central valley and consumers in Southern California as it is, and now they want to build two new tunnels.
The Arizona River doesn't even reach the sea anymore for all the exploitation the several states conduct at its expense.
Thusly, I'm not interested at all in some huge interstate water project.
We need to stop living beyond our environmental means are need to return to respecting nature as we found it, not trying to "master" it for our own purposes.
IMHO.
