The water contractors have controlled the process every step of the way, to the complete exclusion of the entire Delta community, including the sport and commercial fishing industries and their attendant jobs as well as excluding (or trying to) any reasonable biological arguments that are necessary to restore our fisheries.

The only way to fight the massive corruption of the process is, unfortunately, through litigation.

(That is until the U.S. Congress changes the laws. Which looks like the way it will go, according to current politics. Also, the drive to get rid of the ESA by the San Joaquin Valley legislators because it interferes with billionaires making more billions by selling taxpayer/ratepayer subsidized water at market rates.)
If like to fish (or hunt) you'd better be extremely cautious with your votes over the coming election cycles...(like maybe vote for grid-lock until there are more reasonable alternatives!

And just how have the Water Contractors controlled the BDCP process? Laura King Moon who works for the Water Contractors is on loan to the BDCP......

Corrupt to the core..... enough said.
