BREAKING NEWS – Single Tunnel Notice of Preparation Released

The Department of Water Resource’s (DWRs) Notice of Preparation came out today – announcing the kick-off of the single tunnel project. Here is the PDF of the full NOP.

Groan.

Save the California Delta Alliance) was formed because of the 2009 Two-Gates project that threatened to shut off boating between Discovery Bay and the rest of the Delta. The community responded. We stopped the unstoppable Two-Gates Project.

Done? Oh, no. Then there was the peripheral canal project that morphed into the California WaterFix Twin Tunnels. After eight years we won again – two-tunnel project was withdrawn.

So now, Mamma Mia here we go again. The DWR just released a Notice of Preparation to begin the process anew.

2010 – We stopped the Two-Gates 2019 – We stopped the Twin Tunnels 2020 – We will stop the One Tunnel             Then there will be zero tunnels!

We are asking for your help one more time. Help us put this final project away.

The Five Delta County Coalition also slammed the NOP

“It’s been 11 years since the introduction of the Bay Delta Conservation Plan Twin Tunnels proposal, and nearly a year since Governor Newsom’s withdrawal of California WaterFix Twin Tunnels project. It appears DWR is pursuing another inadequate and scientifically flawed project with one tunnel.
