Latest Bechtel Foundation-funded PPIC report continues to tout "conveyance"
Regardless of how much "conveyance" advocates try to greenwash the construction of the peripheral canal, there is no doubt that once a canal or tunnel is built, the state water contractors would export more water - not less or the same amount of water - from the largest estuary on the West Coast of the Americas.

In its design and operation, the center reflects the values that PPIC and the Bechtel family place on environmental and technological innovation.”
