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.
Oops I guess the money should come from the state. Time to tighten the belt a bit.
If Trump give money he should ask to be rembursed with 15%

Ask Mexico President for help Jerry
To hell with them…let it break! Those pompous idiots need to learn how to elect people who will work for the benefit of all and impeach or fire those who are not. Start with that brain dead botox junkie Nancy Pelosi!!!
Jerry Brown is a puppet that belongs to the parole and correctional officers union . Our last Governor worked hard to relax the stranglehold our states corrections system has on the annual state budget and had some success . Jerry was put back in place to solidify their position . If this sounds far out just look where his money came from last time he was gov . and how we went from 9 prisons to 32 in less than 8 years with Jerry Brown as governor !
This is an example of when liberalism meets real life! And NO Jerry, NO federal money for California! Pass the hat amoung all those rich Hollywood liberals!
