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.
Shame on you Jerry Brown. You like immigrants, you use them to repair your problems and pay them from your state funds.
Let him get his state on the right track,them help all those people didn’t have anything to do with waste of money. It take a bad wrong to wake people up.

We can’t let those people who live lose their homes because the governor did not do his job. It just exposes how crazy things have gotten in that state.
If it don’t produce electricity then it needs to be updated. Does this dam affect droughts down stream ?
yes and the same example is extended nation wide!
