Comments on: Westlands hordes surplus water while fish die and unemployed farm workers beg for food and work; CSPA calls for investigation into surplus water by Westlands and others Delta standards continue to be violated http://aquafornia.com/archives/11024 The California Water News blog!

The problem with doing that is it is easy to get yourself all tangled up in a web of misinformation.For example it says ..."violate the law in order to supply Westlands with water they can’t use.” In one breath they are accusing them of hording water, and in the next breath they're saying they cannot use this water. Why would they horde water they cannot use? That's ridiculous. What is really happening is the farmers continued efforts at water conservation surpassed expectations. They should be applauded for doing their part so well! That water that they saved will be used on the next crops planted after this harvest is completed. The fish are dying because the hypocrites that call themselves environmentalists continue to look the other way as the sewers pump waste and chemicals into the estuary. It's time to address the real problem and the farmers are not it!! CSPA gets the spin master award for being able to twist facts like no one else!
