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.
As a quote from “The Help”, ” God don’t give charity to those who are willing and able, you need to come up with the money on your own”…
YOU FOLKS GOT YOU A REAL WINNER THERE ???? You are repeating history??????

F**K BROWN AND KALIFORNIA!!!!!
Tough luck jerry. You chose your side years ago now live with it.
Billions of dollars in California Taxes have been approved to upgrade all the Reservoirs and dams for years and nothing has been done. Why? Where’s the Funds? Just like the high speed train. Governor Moonbeam has lots of funds for Sanctuary Cities but not for public projects. Totally corrupted Politicians run this state.
OK, moonbeam…You can spend untold $billions on Illegal Criminals, invest $billions into a ‘Hi Speed Train’ to nowhere to line your Relatives’ pocket with money, cut off water to millions of Farmers to save a guppy and create 45% unemployment in the Central Valley, but refuse to invest a dime into California’s Infrastructure? Your Judgement is p**s poor, Dipsh*t!
