Doug LaMalfa: “We have multinational cartels up there getting away with this as farms go dry, and even water for fire suppression is…”

Last year, we were able to fill San Luis Reservoir 100 percent. This year, there was a vast amount, like 95 percent, of cut-down in running the pumps.

Now, if you were a miner, if you were anybody else, that would probably be life in prison for what they are doing there.

So, to replace 65 percent of the locomotives by 2030, no way, right?

So, better water years typically result in better fish runs is a pretty safe conclusion, I would say.
