schwarzenegger_feinstein.jpg
by Dan Bacher
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger continues on his crusade to build more dams and a peripheral canal to export more water from the California Delta. His campaign is based on the lie that no dams or water storage facilities have been built in California in the past 20 to 30 years - disregarding the fact that several new dams and water storage facilities have been constructed in recent years and virtually every economically feasible dam site in California has now been taken. California water is al...

by Dan Bacher
In a big victory for the embattled Klamath River, Judge William Alsup of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on Friday rejected PacifiCorps’ request to throw out the Klamath dams toxins case filed by the Klamath Riverkeeper.

textLennar BVHP LLC and the SF City and County of San Francisco and liability by Francisco Da Costa
Again and again I asked during the many times I attended numerous meetings leading the transfer of Parcel A about liability. Michael Cohen was in charge of this issue and again and again he said that the SF City and County had a $25 million insurance and that the U.S. Navy too was responsible if any toxic element was found on Parcel A. Now, we all know that this bluff was to cover Lennar BVHP LLC so that it could wash its hands - and with intent bombard innocent constituents for the long peri...

by Dan Bacher
Three conservation groups are petitioning for state and federal endangered species protection for the longfin smelt, a cousin of the imperiled Delta smelt. Both smelt species have collapsed to record lows in the Bay-Delta Estuary, due to record water exports from the Delta in recent years, combined with the impact of toxic chemicals and invasive species on the fish. Meanwhile, Arnold the "Fish Terminator" Schwarzenegger is pushing a mad plan to build the peripheral canal and more dams that wi...

It is a shame when any Representative be it from the House or Senate applies undue pressure to adversely impact thousands - as has been done in the Bayview Hunters Point linked to Parcel A.
