No, Mr. Kightlinger.  You're Part of the Problem

(Over pumping of the Delta IS THE PROBLEM.  Reduce exports back to levels say about 1985, build your proper water storage facilities in So Cal, be prepared for the water when you get it. Honor/enforce existing water rights, including WWD's junior water rights to water that is in EXCESS of area of origin needs.  Then and only then, will you see a return of the Bay-Delta Watershed to a better health and standards.  THAT Mr. Kightlinger IS the solution and a turn around of YOUR created 'status quo'.)

FEMA to Assess threats to Delta Fish
http://www.sfgate.com/science/article/FEMA-to-assess-threat-to-delta-fish-3805597.php#ixzz24FpwTGAp
(My first reaction to this was 'huh??" FEMA had nothing to do with Spanos building right up to his set-back line, that was accomplished via City General Plan and Delta Protection Commission's land use review responsibilities.  This article doesn't make much sense, unless I'm just not getting it.  And just by the title alone: Since when has FEMA ever given a good-golly about Delta fish?????)
