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.
this is what happens when all our money is spent on illegals only.
Not a dime to California
Calli has gone to hell in a hand basket
I think the Gov. needs to ‘Comply’ with the Laws Already on the books before he receives anything, then that money should be watched carefully to ensure that it goes to where it is intended. 12 Years ago they were warned, 12 Years ago they received 17 Billion for such needs, Where did that money go? They should be held 100% accountable!
Have some of your Hollywood elitist foot the bill, Jerry
I live in California and we voted for a proposition to fix these things and nothing was done. Where is that money Jerry? How about we use the money for your non-bullet train to fix it.
Let em swim.
Nancy Pelosi, Watters, and Feinstein are waiting for Jerry’s call.
Nope!
This guy is such a p**s poor leader.
