An article in the SacBee indicates that a lawsuit that over turned a 2003 accord for sales of water from growers in the Imperial Valley to San Diego is under appeal in Sacto this week. This agreement, if overturned, would mean that San Diego would have to rely entirely on the LAMWD for it's water supply. That would put more pressure on MWD to increase its demand for water from the Delta. Bad news. The court is currently conducting hearings:

Another article, seemingly unrelated, reports that the affects of climate change could imperil efforts to restore the Delta, Delta Smelt and Salmon/Steelhead unless it is controlled now:

Seems like all of this plus the recent DFG actions make up the convergence of a "perfect storm" of potentially negative outcomes for the Delta and it's ecology....
