  • Delta Smelt temporary settlement reached: worthless

    The good news is that for four months the delta smelt will get less water. The bad news is that no one knows what will happen in June.

    "A settlement has been reached between a multitude of parties fighting over the tiny Delta smelt, a minnow-like fish that lives in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and which might be on the verge of extinction.

    The agreement, hammered out in U.S. District Court in Fresno, and signed by the state and federal governments, environmental groups, farmers, and water contractors, upholds the scientifically justified protections, including water pumping limits and limits on how many fish can be killed by the State Water Project and the Central Valley Project, which draw water out of the Delta for urban, rural and farming customers"

    There is a better way in this matter. Forget the delta smelt and have government care about people first--not bait.
