Monday’s top of the scroll: Delta vision ‘report card’ to be issued at today’s meeting; Delta panel to give California an “incomplete”

From the Sacramento Bee:

A panel of officials appointed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to solve the Delta’s water and environmental problems plans to give the state an “incomplete” grade for its progress so far. The rating, to be presented in a “report card,” will be finalized after testimony Monday from environmentalists, water groups and state officials at a meeting in Sacramento.

The seven-member Delta Vision Task Force, led by former Sacramento mayor Phil Isenberg, officially doesn’t exist anymore. But after releasing its December recommendations, it decided to stay alive as a private group to press for action.

Results in the draft report card don’t look good: The group finds that the state has made little to no progress on most of its recommendations.
