Earthjustice <[email protected]> on behalf of A Edwards <[email protected]> Thursday, October 08, 2015 9:39AM BDCPcomments Oppose the Delta Tunnels/"California Water Fix" (Alternative 4A)
Being a Northern California Bay Area native, it seems that there are times when people want Southern California to be it's own state. In reality we are all in this drought together, but diverting such a valued resource from an already fragile ecosystem just doesn't seem like the right idea. Please think about the future impacts and how much of California's central valley farming relies on the Delta. Thanks for listening
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the Delta Tunnels Plan.
The deceptively named "California Water Fix" does not address the multitude of adverse environmental, public health, and economic impacts the proposed Delta tunnels project would cause. Further, the plan ignores alternatives that would save California tax- and ratepayers billions of dollars, while investing in jobs and local water sources that build sustainability, instead of severely damaging the Delta and Bay ecosystems.
I urge you not to permit the Delta Tunnels/California Water Fix (Alternative 4A) project to move forward.
Sincerely,

We need this water--it shouldn't be diverted for industrial agriculture. As an almond grower, I know that they can be dry-farmed--taste better too. Just not as quick. Everyone has to sacrifice during the drought. Make industry do their share.

This is foul and negligent. Farmers need to sustain the land they farm. They can not rob every life form around them and do irreparable damage. Permaculture farming is a solution. The techniques and product must be amenable to the region.

Please stop the Delta Tunnels (Calif. Water Fix) project. The Bay-Delta ecosystem needs to be saved from waterintensive industrial farm practices. The ag companies profit from exports to China (80% of almonds) while California is damaged. This is a short-sighted project aimed to benefit only a few.

I love almonds. The price keeps going up with the drought. But PLEASE SAY NO to the delta tunnels.
Another thought regarding the almonds, is that bees are being treated like "farm factory" workers. This contributes to the collapse of bee hives and colonies.
I was born, raised and have lived in California for 57 years. As a nation, and nation of consumers, we need to think long term with the respect to the environment and that includes our farming practices.

As we well know, nature provides free services. Please consider letting nature do it's thing for us at a savings instead of spending this money on tunnels. It would be more practical to change the types of crops we grow in the state and use other common sense measures. Let's use this money where it's needed more. Let's be smarter.

It is another big business ploy for profit. The ecosystem of the bay and delta needs to be protected. Life will go on with less almonds, but the ecosystem will die if we don't protect it.
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the Delta Tunnels Plan.
The deceptively named "California Water Fix" does not address the multitude of adverse environmental, public health, and economic impacts the proposed Delta tunnels project would cause. Further, the plan ignores alternatives that would save California tax- and ratepayers billions of dollars, while investing in jobs and local water sources that build sustainability, instead of severely damaging the Delta and Bay ecosystems.

Industrial-scale agriculture has proven to have huge costs to our state's water resources. Investment and effort need to be made into how to farm with more consideration of our precious water resources. This includes questioning whether industrial scale farming of thirsty almond and pistachio crops make sense when so much of this crop gets exported. In essence, we are exporting our water.
We need to be supporting local agriculture and local food economies, as in, an agricultural economy that creates wealth in the community it comes from. Piping water with an incredible mammoth infrastructure project further veils the true cost of water, allowing business as usual--where agribusiness profit margins enlarge at the cost of our natural resources, and community health.
Many agricultural communities surrounding industrial-scale agriculture in large swaths of the Central Valley and the Salinas Valley struggle with contaminated drinking water, due in large part to unfettered agricultural discharges. It remains deplorable that some of the poorest communities in our state border high yield agri-fields, providing more profit for big agribusiness to the detriment of the communities that sustain them.
Let's put effort into improving the health of our local economies and supporting farming that is beneficial for the communities that they are grounded in rather than continuing to subsidize Big Ag.
Protect the Bay-Delta ecosystem and stop subsidizing Big Ag.

You recently stated at the LA MWD meeting that California could add another 10 million people to our population. It is past time to recognize that California is overpopulated and serious, measures need to be taken to let the current population know that we cannot continue to increase our population. We don't have the water supply and we are paving over and destroying the lands, waterways and polluting the air and beaches. It is time to get serious and limit new construction and establish hard limits to population growth. Adding bigger tunnels to divert water is not helping the situation.

It is outrageous that you would divert massive amounts of water for orchards!
Factory farms must change their ways and stop growing crops that require massive amounts of water! The state must support sustainable (ecological) agriculture. It is suicidal to continue operating in the old ways.

We can not sacrifice one ecosystem that remains in California. For the price of this tunnel we could build hundreds of De-salinization plants run on solar electricity up and down our coast freeing up existing water resources to send to areas in need. Las Angeles could get all of it's water from De-sal and the Owens Valley diversion could be shared. The Central Valey needs water but if we stopped exporting so much to S. California's big cities allong the coast where Sea Water coulkd be converted to fresh water using solar and wind, it makes no sense to built a tunnel that adds no water to California, just diverts it. We need new resources and DE-sal would do that.

RECIRC1284.
As Californians concerned about the future of water in our state, we have followed the development ofthe Bay Delta Conservation Plan with interest, and now increasingly with concern. Despite the enorn1ous price tag for the project, we see little indication that it will address the very serious water issues that we face statewide. The BDCP does nothing to increase the overall water supply throughout the state; it appears to threaten the already fragile Delta ecosystem, and it diverts attention and funds from other simpler efforts that might be more beneficial in the long run: things like ground water recharge, and storm water re-capture.
As lay people, we need to leave the detailed analysis to experts who can comprehend the intricacies and complexities of the proposal, but from where we sit, the plan does not seem like a wise move for the State of California. We urge that it not be pursued.

I am opposed to the twin tunnel project. It is a massive "boondoggle" that will create financial hardship for many and do irreparable environmental damage without providing any real benefit. The fact that it will not produce any new water should be enough reason to scrap the project and use the 16Billion dollars saved to consider viable and less expensive alternatives.

I am opposed to the Delta tunnels because the project is not cost effective nor beneficial. No new water will be created to support the massive price tag on these tunnels. They will merely move existing water from our beautiful Delta to Southern California. These tunnels will destroy the Delta's annual agricultural economy. Many farms will be lost.
A cost analysis needs to be presented to the public before Governor Brown continues trying to push his plan through without input from all those affected.
Build desalinization plants, save rainwater, stop Southern Californians from wasting water because they think they have to have beautiful lawns (Hollywood mansions) and put this plan on the ballot so we can vote on it.
Stop the tunnels!

Dear Comments,
RECIRC1287.
Friends of the River <[email protected]> on behalf of Judith Massey-Weekly < [email protected] > Saturday, October 10, 2015 4:35 PM BDCPcomments I oppose all alternatives in the Revised BDCP that propose construction of new diversions and tunnels under the Delta
Thank you for receiving public comments in response to the Recirculated Draft BDCP Plan and Draft EIR/EIS.
I oppose all alternatives in the BDCP that propose construction of new diversions and tunnels under the Delta. I oppose the project because:
It is too costly (up to $54 billion with interest and other hidden costs) and the general public should not have to cover any of this outrageous, including habitat restoration costs. These should be paid by those who receive the water (since the Delta diversions degraded the habitat in the first place).
Operation of the diversions and tunnels threaten to dewater major upstream reservoirs in northern California and reduce downstream river flows, to the detriment of fish, wildlife, recreation, and other public trust values.
Diversion and tunnel facilities would adversely impact too much Delta farmland and habitat, harm Brannan Island State Park, infringe on the Stone Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, and degrade other essential conservation lands.
You cannot restore Delta habitat without first determining how much fresh water the Delta needs to survive and thrive. Restoration of fresh water flows from the San Joaquin River in the south Delta are particularly important.
The tunnels will need more upstream storage facilities to feed fresh water into them. These include raising Shasta Dam, building the Sites Reservoir, and possibly reviving the Auburn Dam on the American River and the Dos Rios Dam on the Eel. The environmental, cultural, and financial impacts of these controversial projects are a significant foreseeable but ignored impact of the BDCP .
. A cost analysis must be done and presented to all those affected before Governor Brown tries to push his plan through. It's not right to destroy the agriculture of the Delta or ruin the farm in this region. The massive cost of this plan far outweighs any return on water. Build salinization plants, save rain water, stop So Cal from wasting water on Hollywood mansion landscapes and put a tunnel measure on a ballot once the cost analysis is available to let the voters of this state decide if there should be tunnels. I do not want any of the taxes I pay to go toward the cost of Delta tunnels.
I believe that the Revised BDCP should have included, and I would support, an alternative that significantly reduces Delta exports and focuses instead on restoring habitat and threatened and endangered species in the Delta, improves Delta water quality by providing sufficient fresh water inflow from both the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, and that includes a pragmatic plan to sustainably meeting California's water needs. This can be done by increasing agricultural and urban water use efficiency, capturing and treating storm water, recycling urban waste water, cleaning up polluted
groundwater, and reducing irrigation of desert lands in the southern Central Valley with severe drainage problems. We don't need to build more dams or tunnels.
Thank you for considering my comments.

A critical comment submission on the California WaterFix twin tunnels:
RECIRC1288.
Chapter 22 of the BDCP/WaterFix EIR is all about Air Quality and what will be done to mitigate the toxic air that is filled with contaminants that Tunnels workers will face if the tunnels are built. As the chapter admits, cancer causing toxins will be everywhere and some held in by the inversion layer that partially covers the Delta work area.
In addition to what's in the Delta now, there will diesel trucks running 24/7 one-after-another, carrying muck to God knows where. There will be diesel pile-drivers running every 7 seconds for 24/7. There will be diesel light generators running every evening. The tunnels construction zone will become fraught with cancer-causing chemicals and toxins.
Chapter 22 designates how the dirty air quality will be mitigated, but this is a misnomer. There will be no mitigation of the Delta workplace air quality. At the end of Chapter 22 there is a long column of how all the toxic air quality problems are to be mitigated. This whole section is completely bogus. Allow me to explain:
The mitigation in all cases will be by the use of offsets. Offsets are cases where the "Cap 'n Trade" process is used. The vVaterFix will seek to purchase "clean air" from an air district or even another country which has not yet met its limit of pollution on a world-wide basis. This only off-sets the pollution in the Delta on paper! The pollution does not leave the Delta. It is as worse with the offsets as it would be if there were no offsets at all! Therefore, there is really NO MITIGATION AT ALL FOR DELTA AIR QUALITY.
I defy anyone to show me how offsets will actually mitigate the toxic air in the Delta!
What the WaterFix faces then is a construction site that is highly polluted with no mitigation. That results in a highly contaminated and toxic workplace. For this reason alone, the whole WaterFix project should be scrapped and ended forthwith.

I am firmly against the twin tunnels. Delta Smelt and other freshwater species need more fresh water. The twin tunnels will rout water around the Delta reducing fresh water. Delta smelt and other freshwater species will suffer.
West-side farmers rolled the dice by planting permanent crops in ground that should only be planted to annuals. Their gamble did not pay off but they are asking others to bail them out. I don't like gambling and I don't think we should bail them out.
Southern California is a desert. It should remain a desert. There is more to be gained by better stewardship and conservation than transferring water from a region of higher rainfall to one of very little rainfall. Southern Californians need to adapt and learn to live in their environment.

RECIRC1292.
The concept of the twin tunnels relies on the belief that the continuing supply of water is an infinite one. The current drought has shown all of us that this is not true. Continuing to ship water away from where it is naturally destined will do nothing but increase the population where it is sent and destroy the environment where it is removed. It addition the cost will become an overwhelming burden on not only the current taxpayers but also their children and grandchildren.
This situation should be compared to the destruction of the Owens Valley in the early twentieth century. Southern California sucked all of the water from that verdant valley and turned it into a wasteland. All it accomplished was to satisfy the thirst of people trying to make an oasis out of a desert and to make a few individuals rich. Now they want to do it again.
Please do not permit these ill conceived tunnels to be built.

RECIRC1293.
We live in a desert and water is a precious asset. The concept of the Twin Tunnels was always a plan for disaster. Draining the water away from a part of California to feed another will only destroy said area. The Owens valley is a prime example of destruction of a large area that had been used for farming and recreation.
Now the theft of this water comes at a time when Northern California is already suffering from lack of water. Salt water is creeping into the Delta, farmers have been forced to limit their usage, our reservoirs are essentially empty, wells are going dry and landscaping is dying.
In addition the cost for this fiasco is astronomical not just for us but for future generations. Do not allow this illconceived idea to come to fruition.

RECIRC1295.
Before you move forward with the Water Fix Tunnels plan, please realize that these multi-billion-dollar monstrosities fail to increase any water supply and devastate an already fragile Delta EcoSystem. It will hurt the families, farmers, and businesses in the region through eminent domain. Additionally, it will increase the salinity and the resulting contamination to crops grown in the Delta region. This will also affect the fish that live in the rivers. Our fresh water and ground water supply will be depleted.
We need to stop this antiquated method of shipping water from the North to the South without taking into consideration that there is no excess water in the North. We are destroying Northern California's water supply and farming for the benefit of the South. This "water fix" plan is not the right solution for managing California's water supply. We need to find forward thinking solutions such as: desalination, recycling, storage, and ways to increase the water table.
This state deserves and needs better and more innovative alternatives to the current plans and we sincerely hope that you will take the leadership to make this happen. Please come to your senses!

A far better solution would be to build a dam across the Carquinez strait. Fish ladders would enable fish migration upstream, while the dam would prevent salt intrusion into the Delta. The dam would collect fresh water from the Sierra, and then California would have enough water. Governor Brown's tunnel proposal, on the other hand, would funnel precious water to the Valley's tracking industry, wasting water and polluting our groundwater reserves.
