I would be furious if I lived anywhere near this dam. Unresponsive government is inexcusable. The hell with the train, fix the damned dam.
Another example of what voters get when they keep electing liberals/democrats.
They have known for three years they had a defective spillway. I do not have much faith in the DWR managers over-seeing this. They have to be in a huge CYA mode trying to look good.

The sun is up and citizen-voters want to see the damage.
“I would be furious if I lived anywhere near this dam. Unresponsive government is inexcusable. The hell with the train, fix the damned dam.”
The people living below the dam and evacuated last night are not rich Californians. They work on farms, ranches and other jobs to live in apartments, condos and smaller homes south of the dam.
So what they going to do to feed their families and for lodging while the rent and mortgage payments on their evacuated homes need to be paid.
Money in the areas where they are now will be scarce as ATMs get pounded for cash.
The restaurants/grocery stores where they are now are probably out of inventoy to feed people.
People, who brought their pets with them have to be in a serious problem of where to keep their pets and how to feed them.
