From NY Times – Monday, May 30, 2011
Coalition response...Reports of dropping groundwater levels is not surprising when one considers the relationship between the San Joaquin Valley and State and federal projects supplying water to the region. These projects were encouraged in order to halt the dropping groundwater levels of years ago. Recent droughts and governmental regulations preventing water from flowing to the area forced farmers to turn to groundwater to save their crops. This unreliability emphasizes the need for improved conveyance to move available water to areas of need.
