I found this. This explains everything and it seems to me that if the emergency spillway goes and the main one through erosion, the whole dam could go.

I like how they mention the 2005 ecological groups suit that they lost. They say it was against the Feds. In fact the Fed’s were peripheral and the suit was against the State. The state of California owns this pig and could have overlaid the top of the emergency run off area at any time. In fact. they could have topped it for much less than the figure mentioned and it probably would have worked.
California journalists — just knee jerk placing blame on the deep pocket feds.

It explains a lot, but what happened (or didn’t) between 2005 and 2017? The Obama years are ironically left out.
