Read the Bee front section-- page 3. Waterbank may be established to transfer 600,000 a.ft. water from willing sellers in the north, to water hungry locations in the south. This, after we find out that the Kern water bank has a gob of illegal water underfoot. The prospectives must demonstrate a 20% water conservation program to qualify for the water. 20%!! Why not make it 50%?

Then the kicker was when I read that the prospective transfers may be held up by delta water stnadards and the ESA. ANOTHER GREAT REASON FOR THESE JERK-OFFS TO BUiLD THE PERIFPHERAL CANAL! THEY WON'T HAVE NEARLY AS MANY ENVIRONMENTAL RESTRICTIONS!! DIDN'T THESE UCDC PEOPLE THINK OF THAT???
