#ICYMI: A new LA Times article highlights California's $180 million agreement for additional water for Sacramento River salmon, at an estimated $36,000 per acre-foot. Critics question the cost, transparency, & how much water will benefit the ecosystem.

Restore the Delta retweeted
The Newsom administration agreed to pay an investment company $180 million in a deal that requires a farm to leave water in the Sacramento River. State officials say it will help fish and the environment. Critics say it was a bad deal for taxpayers.

My face when I remember the Delta tunnel and Voluntary Agreements are still in place at the CA State Water Board 😐
The upcoming Bay-Delta Plan hearings are our chance to speak up for stronger water protections & communities that depend on the Delta.

🌊 Myth vs. Fact: Bay-Delta Plan Edition
California’s Bay-Delta Plan is meant to protect water quality, river flows, and ecosystems across the state’s largest estuary and watershed. But the latest update leaves critical gaps in science, public health, and participation. 1/5
❌ Myth: The Bay-Delta Plan adequately addresses harmful algal blooms (HABs) and protects public health.
✅ Fact: The plan does not establish enforceable standards for cyanotoxins associated with HABs. Reliance on VAs also sidesteps strict regulations needed to address HABs. 4/5
📣 The State Water Board will soon vote on whether to adopt the updated Bay-Delta Plan on October 28-29.
🗣️ Join us on Wednesday, October 21, from 7-8 PM to prepare for the hearings and make your voice heard.
