Doug LaMalfa: “California Legislature being what it is, they are still hell-bent on doing this project as-is.”

I am pretty big on the privacy side, sir. So, I think let's design a system where people aren't being followed around even more so just for the Government to take money from them, right.

Well, my understanding is that it does depend on how good or bad the pool level 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.

But that costs a lot of money to the taxpayers. We always say Government needs to do something. It is the taxpayers that pays for all of this.
