Dams, like much of our infrastructure, are not the sort of things that attract any attention. As long as they do their jobs, nobody notices and life goes on as normal. Even those who enjoy the benefits of these structures such as boating enthusiasts and those who use the electricity often generated at dams, rarely give them a thought. That is, until something goes wrong, and with a dam that could mean catastrophe.
Man-made structures need periodic maintenance. When that is not performed, they deteriorate. All of this is obvious, but it is often deliberately ignored for budgetary reasons. Fail to maintain a road. and you get potholes. Fail to maintain a dam, and you can end up with thousands of dead people and untold property damage. It looks like California may be headed for just such a catastrophe. More on page two.
No money for states who do not honor the laws.
Well it looks like Gore was a little off, Sacramento might be under water instead of Miami.
they all believe in global warming so there was no need for dams for decades

You’ve humiliated the president, don’t want him in CA but now you want help. Hmmmm
He should embrace that water ! it’s just oppressed water from years of being held back behind that concrete dam ( a wall ) ! it just wants to seek refuge on the other side ! it’s refugee water !!! why repair that wall ??? or maybe he should put signage up around the dam , reading no leaking ! hey idiot , send some protestors to protest that wall , for holding back that water !!!
The only way to resolve the money issue is that all politicians involved in the harboring of illegals resign and the people vote in a replacement.Jerry needs to be arrested for his illegal actions and no money for California until they clean out there corrupt politicians that has robbed these people of there hard earned money.!!! No pity party here.!!!
