Coalition response...Claiming that water users south of the Delta do not care what happens in
the Delta region is a fact less statement that only serves to heighten the
rhetoric surrounding efforts to reach a solution to California's water dilemma.
These water users have spent more than $150 million to fund the studies and
research that includes Delta ecosystem restoration. California's water future
is deserving of a continuing dialogue but it must be one that is reasonable and
absent of statements that serve no purpose.

Coalition response...Despite what Rep. Garamendi would have people believe, the current Bay
Delta Conservation Plan includes more than a "plumbing system." It is
the result of years of study and research that features Delta ecosystem
restoration, an improved conveyance system, restored habitat and more. He also
incorrectly cites 15,000 cfs as the size of the proposed conveyance when that
number is much smaller at only 9,000 cfs. Recent calls to consider an even
smaller conveyance at 3,000 cfs fail to recognize that this lower size has
already been studied by BDCP.
Critics of the current BDCP
proposal continually raise the rhetoric that the Sacramento River and Delta
will be drained. Nothing is further from the truth. Diversions will be closely
governed and increased or decreased according to the amount of water available
in the system. To view how the system will work, click here.
Securing a reliable water future
for our State and at the same time protect the Delta requires thoughtful
discussions and committed individuals and organizations seeking the best for
all California.
