A California dam threatened by a damaged emergency spillway has operated under temporary licenses for a decade.
A spokeswoman for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission says a 50-year license for Oroville Dam, the nation's tallest, expired in January 2007. Mary O'Driscoll told The Associated Press that the facility has been operating under an existing license that's renewed each year.
The California Department of Water Resources, which operates the dam, applied for a new 50-year license in 2005.
O'Driscoll said the federal agency finally received all the necessary permits and other documents needed to decide on the new license last December.
Nearly 200,000 people have been ordered to leave their homes out of fear that a damaged spillway could collapse.

Thanks for your concern but rest assured that there is
no shortage of weapons in the subject area. The legal
issues may or may not be problematic .
Yep, sometimes I wish our taglines could be a pic of CA vote by county. Maybe then people would start to understand......
Here in the free (and massively REPUBLICAN) state of TN the legal issues of ownership are not problematic, as can be seen from the contents of a safe in my house, which would get me prosecuted for multiple felonies in CA. My condolences to you on your communist government. I pray that PRESIDENT Trump will send you the army of liberation.
I am not referring to the legal issues surrounding gun
ownership. I am talking about the legal issues surrounding
the use of these weapons when it comes to defending
yourself, your family, and your property. I sense that
you took a little offense at my response. All I was
saying is that the rural areas currently at flood risk
are flush with gun owning hunters and others who keep
weapons handy at their residence. The type of weapons
legally available may not match what you are used to
but what is available can certainly do a job when it
comes to deterring looters. How law enforcement handles
the use of weapons when used against looters is
partially a jurisdictional affair. The DAs in rural
counties, for example, tend to be more lenient when
it comes to self defense. But, that is basically true
for a large part of the nation.
I respect that your state is massively Republican
and I regret that my state is not. However, I
take solace in knowing that California cast
3.9 million votes for Trump. Only the great
states of Texas and Florida gave Trump more
votes.
The tragedy is that the illegal aliens’ votes overwhelmed the citizens’ votes. The DemonCraps have used their votes to steal the state from its citizens and the United States. That’s why your vote for Trump in the Republican primary was probably the best vote you were able to cast and the only one that could help save CA.

ButtWipe!
Just one in a long line of awaiting disasters.
