So the plot thickens. It would be ideal if FERC would get FEMA to stop the funds. Let them come to DC begging for money. After California’s stated desire to fund illegals, and to go to their own single-payer system, they should be cut loose. The only way that the fed should even consider funding is if the fed takes control over the dam and spillway. Although, I’m not sure I want that potential disaster on the federal budget either.

DWR gets "schooled" by FERC - FERC almost run out of letters in the alphabet in the sub-identifiers in corrections to DWR in QCIP

It seems DWR didn't do their homework. FERC requires an independent quality control program that is solely the responsibility of the licensee (DWR). The reason for this is to prevent a contractor from influencing the quality of construction if simply relying on the contractor. DWR was breaching this protocol by allowing quality control aspects to be left with the contractor - a no-no with FERC requirements. There are other rather sloppy items that FERC noted to DWR that needed correction & identification to responsibilities. Reminds me of a marked up school test with much "red markings". Wonder what the grade would be?
