Delta Issues |
|
For a detail chart of issues, from a Delta
perspective, go to Issues The links below provide a
researcher's summary of some of the main issues regarding the latest
effort to REvise the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta region. Since
there are literally millions of research pages regarding the issues, we
try to direct the reader to the best summaries or maps for quick review
and understanding of the issues, not based on what the media wants you to
know but based on historical FACTS. The Delta Region is a huge,
complicated water and utility hub that DOES need to be revised and issues
resolved based on FACTS, not fabricated data designed to lead the reader
to a specific conclusion.
 The buzz word for the 21st Century is
"Sustainability" and certainly the media has been applying that word as
the measure by which to validate the governmental taking of Delta private
lands to hand over to other private interests. Please take the time
to look at all the issues and form your own opinion based on facts, to
determine what is or is not "sustainable", and what might be the best
option for California overall.
We suggest you click on the map to
see an enlarged version, or print out the Delta's Future map to use as
reference for the locations of the Delta Islands which are the target of
topics as listed. For a general video about the Delta, go to
http://youtube.com and type in
"Sacramento Delta 101" or click on the "Don't Drain the Delta"
photo to the left above. |
| Thru-Delta vs Delta Cross Channel Plan vs CalFed Preferred
Alternative vs Monterey Agreement vs Napa Agreement vs Large Owner Axis vs
Delta Corridors vs Pheriperal Canal: What's the difference besides
the name? |
|
| East vs. West: Dividing the Delta
between fresh water and brackish water environments using the CALFED
Central Canal |
|
| Landowner vs. Developer: Who benefits from the plans for the Delta's Future: A lesson
all US landowners should be paying attention to! (Eminent domain for
water conveyance and mitigation measures) |
|
| Dam the Delta vs Dam a Valley:
Where to store more water |
|
| Computer Modeling vs Common Knowledge: |
|
| Fish vs Farmer:
Kern County and Westside Farmers vs California's endangered fish species. |
|
| Fish vs Fish: 0, 2 and 4 legged preditors |
|
| Fish vs weeds |

| Sacramento River vs San Joaquin River:
Water quality |

| Fact vs Fiction: Sacramento River
Flow |
It should be a simple answer...how much water on average
flows into the Delta from the Sacramento River and how much flows out of
the Delta from the Sacramento River? See
waterflow history |

revised Delta, the counties of Sacramento, San Joaquin and Contra Costa
benifit at the expense of Solano and Yolo...again |

| Sacramento County vs Sacramento County-planned
that way |

| Tules vs Food: Does growing tules
to "reduce carbon footprint" make up for the loss of food production on
the same land? |

Fact vs Fiction: Delta Island Flood History: Historical Facts vs. DWR
fabricated maps & data
Dilution vs. Storage:
Is dumping of toxins into the Delta to dilute the toxic impact really a
better option than compaction and storage of the toxins?
Fact vs Fiction: Delta Island Subsidence (sinking): Historical Surveys vs Projections
based on false data
NorCal Aquafer vs SoCal Aquafer: Who looses when
water is limited?
Fact vs Fiction: Delta Levees and Earthquakes: Historical Facts vs. Saladbar
Scientific Analysis
Statistics vs. Reality: People of the Delta
Thru-Delta vs Delta Cross Channel vs CalFed Preferred Alternative vs
Monterey Agreement vs Napa Agreement vs Large Owner Axis vs Delta
