Critics rip feds’ “half-baked” plan to save California salmon
“Fishing groups and water suppliers fought the Biden administration’s proposed drought rules for California’s water system, telling a federal judge Friday the emergency plans won’t stop the demise of endangered salmon. With California trudging through another disappointingly dry winter, the federal government and state officials have agreed upon a set of temporary rules they claim are necessary to preserve enough cold water on the Sacramento River for Chinook salmon this spring and summer. The rules call for new water temperature targets and improved collaboration between federal and state officials on the management of California’s two main water conveyance systems. … ” Read more from the Courthouse News Service here: Critics rip feds’ “half-baked” plan to save California salmon
Climate crisis and systemic inequities drive push to reform California water laws
“California’s mountain snowpack is shrinking, and climate change is intensifying the severe drought. Streams have dwindled and reservoirs have declined as vast quantities of water are diverted for farms and cities. Endangered fish are struggling to survive. And in farming areas in the Central Valley, hundreds of families are struggling with dry wells as groundwater levels continue to drop. A group of prominent legal experts has presented a blueprint for updating California’s system of water laws to fix long-standing weaknesses and adapt to the worsening effects of climate change. They say their proposals, if adopted by the Legislature, would help the state better manage surface water and groundwater, protect vulnerable communities and ecosystems, and improve state oversight of the water rights system. … ” Read more from the LA Times here: Climate crisis and systemic inequities drive push to reform California water laws
Boswell bulldozers allowed to stay put, blocking Kings County pipeline project
“The water fight between Kings County’s two largest growers will continue with heavy equipment intended to block a pipeline project allowed to remain in place on the Tulare Lake Canal banks. The Tulare Lake Canal Company, controlled by JG Boswell Company, moved the equipment onto the canal banks in late January to block trenching for a pipeline by Sandridge Partners, controlled by John Vidovich. Sandridge filed a restraining order to have the excavators, bulldozers and trucks removed but Kings County Superior Court Judge Valerie Chrissakes denied that request on Thursday. ... ” Read more from SJV Water here: Boswell bulldozers allowed to stay put, blocking Kings County pipeline project
Program to replace nitrate-laden drinking water moving too slowly, advocates say
“Free water deliveries have started for some San Joaquin Valley residents with nitrate contaminated wells. But advocates worry that nine months into the state’s nitrate control program, outreach has been lacking and not enough wells have been tested. The nitrate control program launched in May of 2021. It offers free water deliveries for residents whose wells test over the limit for nitrates. The program is mandated by the State Water Resources Control Board and funded by nitrate polluters throughout the valley. … ” Read more from SJV Water here: Program to replace nitrate-laden drinking water moving too slowly, advocates say
Where California’s key reservoirs stand after the 2nd driest January ever
“California hasn’t seen rain in over a month, and some of the state’s key reservoirs are starting to be impacted. Shasta Lake, the state’s largest reservoir, was at 54% of its historical average as of Feb. 9, compared to 72% last year, the California Department of Water Resources said. San Luis Reservoir on the eastern slope of the Diablo range is at 59% of its historical average, compared to 71% last year. Other reservoirs are up from where they were at this time last year. … ” Read more from SF Gate here: Where California’s key reservoirs stand after the 2nd driest January ever
Working with Tribes helps oak groves and meadows flourish as they once did
“From snowcapped peaks down to wooded foothills, the Sierra Nevada range includes nine national forests in Nevada and California. For Native American tribes like the North Fork Mono Tribe, the Sierra Nevada is the ancestral homeland and foodshed, so the area holds great value for sustaining their well-being and culture. “We’ve been out on the land for 8,000 years and we’ve got artifacts going back 15,000 years. So we’ve got a lot of history passed down through the generations of how to take care of the land,” said the Hon. Ron Goode, Chairman of the North Fork Mono Tribe. In 2014, the Tribe entered into a participating agreement with the Sierra National Forest to restore meadows using indigenous fire stewardship. That agreement was later supplanted by a Master Stewardship Agreement to restore meadows and oaks on the forest. ... ” Read more from the USDA here: Working with Tribes helps oak groves and meadows flourish as they once did
Interview: Five years after the Oroville Dam crisis, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea reflects on lessons learned
“An hour and a half north of Sacramento, east along the Feather River, sits the tallest dam in the country — the Oroville Dam. The dam is so large, it’s taller than the Tower Bridge is long. Its reservoir is also the second-largest surface reservoir in the state, behind Shasta Lake. The manufactured lake and dam are responsible for delivering water and hydroelectric power throughout the San Joaquin Valley, over the Tehachapi Mountains and down to the coast of Southern California. So, five years ago, when a crater-sized crack in the middle of the primary spillway showed up, it threatened nearly 188,000 thousand people living downstream. … ” Read more from Capital Public Radio here: Interview: Five years after the Oroville Dam crisis, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea reflects on lessons learned
Oroville Dam crisis 5 years later: The evacuation and events that sent 180,000 people fleeing
“Oroville Dam’s main spillway had a hole, and Lake Oroville was rising. The Department of Water Resources tested sending water through the spillway, and it seemed to work, but the erosion around the hole was getting worse, and the bottom of the spillway was falling apart. On Feb. 11, 2017, water began flowing over the emergency spillway, which at the time was a long concrete weir and had never been used before. As the hillside beside the Oroville Dam continued to erode, the real crisis began Feb. 12, 2017. … ” Read more from the Chico Enterprise-Record here: Oroville Dam crisis 5 years later: The evacuation and events that sent 180,000 people fleeing
It’s all about water in the San Joaquin Valley
“Dairy farming has accounted for a high proportion of farmland in the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) of California for almost 50 years. The SJV is a low rainfall area, traditionally ranging from about 5 inches annually in the south (Bakersfield area) to 20 inches in the north (Sacramento area). … However, recent SJV rainfall patterns and higher water demands due to urbanization and the desire to enhance river flows have rendered this system untenable. Change is in the air — or rather, in the water. … ” Read more from Hay & Forage here: It’s all about water in the San Joaquin Valley
Western voters strongly favor more protection of rivers
“In October 2022, the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act turns 54 years old and the Clean Water Act turns 50. Both federal laws were established to safeguard this country’s precious freshwater resource. And while both statutes have helped do that to some degree, our nation’s rivers continue to face threats and degradation. Today, less than 1% of more than 3.6 million miles of rivers in the U.S. are protected under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. … It is therefore urgent that Congress and state policymakers act to protect more of America’s rivers and streams from the mounting threats they face. And perhaps not surprisingly, a poll of registered U.S. voters in five Western states found overwhelming support for additional conservation of our nation’s rivers. … ” Read more from the Pew Charitable Trust here: Western voters strongly favor more protection of rivers
Soak up the February sun? Not without climate change guilt in California
“Californians are lounging in parks, wearing shorts to the beach and dining al fresco without heat lamps in February — and feeling terrible about it. The past few weeks of balmy days and mild nights across the state have many feeling something is off. Rather than blithely basking in the unseasonable warmth, residents can’t shake the fear it will intensify California’s drought and wildfire season. “I think it’s really hit a nerve for so many,” said state Sen. Mike McGuire, a Sonoma County Democrat who saw wine country temperatures hit 79 degrees Thursday. “Love the beautiful weather, but I really love this beautiful weather in June and July.” … ” Read more from Politico here: Soak up the February sun?

Commentary: A feel-good fix that won’t restore salmon
Michael Koepf, former commercial fisherman, writes,” … Rep. Jared Huffman, co-chair of the wild salmon caucus, says he has a remedy to restore king salmon to their historical spawning grounds. According to a news release from his office, he’s introduced a bill that would provide $40 million to “provide identification of salmon areas and strongholds” to “sustain thriving salmon populations.” What a noble inclination — restore salmon in California to “thriving” numbers. Who could resist? How about the fish? I’ve read the bill. Huffman’s legislation purports to spend a great deal of money to identify “strongholds.” In other words, historic, salmon spawning grounds. Ask some old-timers, or the Sierra Club, they’ll tell you exactly where they are, and it won’t cost a dime. … ” Read more from the Santa Rosa Press Democrat here: Commentary: A feel-good fix that won’t restore salmon

EYES ON EARTH PODCAST: ECOSTRESS and Water Use
If you want to know how much rain fell yesterday, you can catch it and measure it. Water vapor? That’s not so easy. Which is a problem if you want to know how quickly that rate is returning to the atmosphere. Water vapor is the single largest part of the water budget, but without space-based observations, it would be all but impossible to measure at wide scale. On this episode of Eyes on Earth, we learn how a sensor called ECOSTRESS helps improve the space-based measurement of evapotranspiration, or ET, which is the combined rate of evaporation from the Earth’s surface and transpiration from plants.
