California’s Democratic congressional delegation has sent a letter to Governor Brown with a list of questions that the legislators want answers to when they meet to discuss the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) with administration officials next week.
The letter, signed by Congressmembers Geroge Miller, Jerry McNerney, Mike Thompson, Doris Matsui, John Garamendi, Ami Bera, Jacke Speier, and Anna Eshoo, states:
” … There is too much at stake in the BDCP for California to move forward with a massive project without using sound science, and viable financing plan, analyzing other options, and considering the voices of all stakeholders including those in the Bay Delta and North of the Bay Delta. … “
The questions address the legislators’ concerns with project operations, analysis of alternatives, funding and governance, and they are expecting answers:
” … Unlike past meetings, we expect your representatives will have substantive answers to our questions; otherwise our meeting will lack the productive dialogue that is necessary for real progress.”
