I doubt Brown can think that much ahead in the future.
Meanwhile, you and the farmers gotta just make the best of it.
This problem can be safely laid at the feet of the libs.
Actually I give Brown some credit for pushing Prop 1 Water Bond that passed last November. Some stuff I don’t like, but the largest item is the 2.7 billion for water storage and reservoirs, Note the last paragraph.
***********************************************************
Specific spending proposals in the proposition include:[2]
$520 million to improve water quality for “beneficial use,” for reducing and preventing drinking water contaminants, disadvantaged communities, and the State Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund Small Community Grant Fund.
$1.495 billion for competitive grants for multibenefit ecosystem and watershed protection and restoration projects.
$810 million for expenditures on, and competitive grants and loans to, integrated regional water management plan projects.
$2.7 billion for water storage projects, dams and reservoirs.
$725 million for water recycling and advanced water treatment technology projects.
$900 million for competitive grants and loans for projects to prevent or clean up the contamination of groundwater that serves as a source of drinking water.
$395 million for statewide flood management projects and activities.
Gov. Jerry Brown (D) called on the legislature to replace the previous $11.14 billion bond (Proposition 43) with a cheaper $6 billion bond on June 25, 2014.[3] Brown called the previous water bond “a pork-laden water bond… with a price tag beyond what’s reasonable or affordable.”[4] The legislature passed the new $7.12 billion bond on August 13, 2014.
