3. Actually there is enough water in Norcal

and the Sierra to sustain a high level of production in the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys even if the entire delta turned brackish. It would be the residential, commercial and ag users south of the Tehachapis (LA, Orange, San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties) who would suffer. Of course that is where the votes are so I'm sure the north state would get fucked as usual. Problem is the cost of repairing and maintaining these levees approaches the national debt and no AFAIK no money for delta levees is included in the bond issue.
