Calif. Governor Ready To Deal With Water Crisis
Widespread Impact
In the wake of a three-year drought and a government shutoff of the water transfer pumps in the delta that help move supplies south to farms, ranches and an estimated 25 million residents, the state's water supply and reliability problems have become dire.
One of the biggest sticking points in negotiations among the governor and legislative leaders appears to have been the size and thrust of general obligation and lease revenue bonds to build new facilities.
"Farm Bureau supports continued efforts to solve water problems that have plagued us for far too long, but we are concerned that the priorities of only a narrow group of stakeholders have been addressed in the bill package," says Rich Matteis, California Farm Bureau Federation's chief staff administrative officer.
