Water logjam at Assembly committee meeting

Posted by: Aqua Blog Maven on August 28, 2008 at 3:51 pm

San Francisco Chronicle reporter Kelly Zito traveled to Sacramento and attended Tuesday’s Assembly committee meeting on water and files this blog report:

I’ve researched California’s water crisis in lots of different ways: Watching a well drilling rig bore into the ground near a golf tee, listening to a San Leandro couple explain how they collect water “scraps” and standing in a parched almond grove where you could almost hear the leaves shriveling.

This week, it was time to travel to another setting — the one that matters most. Sacramento. On Tuesday (originally it was scheduled for Monday. Go figure!), Assembly members on the special committee on water met to talk about various plans to fix the state’s water supply problems. A few proposals are on the table, and they’re competing for a place on November’s ballot.
