Web resources for upcoming Delta Vision meeting

Posted by: Maven on November 22, 2007 at 10:51 am

From ACWA Water News:

A third draft of the Delta Vision report was released yesterday and will be the subject of a two-day meeting on Nov. 29-30 in Sacramento.

The third and final draft report, “A Vision for California’s Delta,” and a summary version of the CALFED Science Program’s State of Science of the Bay-Delta System will be presented to the Governor’s Delta Vision Blue Ribbon Task Force. The Task Force will recommend a vision and near-term actions for the Delta and surrounding ecosystem.

The third draft report and near-term action memo have undergone substantial revisions since the second draft released in October.

Delta stakeholders and interested parties are encouraged to attend the two-day meeting.

Meeting materials, weblinks, and other resources are available by clicking here (http://deltavision.ca.gov/). The website has links to watch the meeting over the web if you are interested but cannot attend.

    Attention !

    Governor’s Delta Vision Blue Ribbon Task Force !

    California needs WATER INSURANCE !

    It costs California ZERO to INVESTIGATE a new fresh water Source that will provide ONE MILLION acre feet a year.

    In the event of severe drought or earthquake, an additional alternative supply could save the Delta, thousands of lives and billions in financial losses.

    Development of the Source is environmentally and ecomically feasible and most importantly will not damage the water rights of anyone, anywhere !

    Conservation is terrific, but at some point, it will not be enough regardless of the price.

    INSURANCE is necessary when it is impractical to suffer a particular loss.

    California must obtain WATER INSURANCE before the crisis, not after it occurs !

    A new Source of ONE MILLION acre feet for the new reservoirs is also good INSURANCE.

    Complete details of the various aspects of the Source are available upon request.
