Coalition viewpoint...Yesterday’s announcement by State and federal officials about moving forward with the BDCP is welcome news for most California water users. It would have been unanimous except for the expected response from certain environmental groups who continue to play a delaying game against restoring reliable water supplies and a restored Delta ecosystem. Their immediate objection to proposed tunnels, which would provide additional safeguards for fish and be paid for by water users, is unreasonable and only results in continued delays and increased costs.
