The left in California quit building dams. To the contrary they want to destroy them to hell with the citizens
They could at least build spreader dams which allow the water to soak into the ground rather then running off.
The Auburn dam project has been on the books since I broke in as a tunnel miner on the upper American River project in 1963. The Auburn dam has the diversion tunnels completed and the proposed submerged land was cleared in the 60’s.
It is a perfect site for a dam and would greatly contribute to flood control and water storage, but no, the lefties have made careers out of opposing the Auburn dam.
I have little patience with complaints about drought and flood control.
