The salmon restoration (the main point of dam removal) has been a disaster. Own goal after own goal. Too much sediment in the water killed migrating wild fish. Then they killed the hatchery fish by forcing them through a tunnel in a high water flow year. They could have imprinted the fish upstream, transported them past the tunnel and saved themselves the trouble. Just shows the general incompetence of state government.

I had an event manager like that once. After an event disaster in which everything went wrong, she came back to my office and her first comment was "the good news is that it wasn't my fault." Shshe e described a cascade of negatives, all of which could and should have been prevented...

Accuweather says no drought conditions in California through all of 2025, at least.
