Below is the agenda for the Aug 12, 1pm California Water Issues Forum at the Capitol Plaza Holiday Inn, Sacramento, that you'll find of interest. Bill Wells will be there and I hope other Delta residents can attend. Note on the Delta issues panel, there is a representative from Metropolitan Water District[of Southern California] and one from Westlands Water District [Fresno]. Last time I checked neither of these water districts were located in the Delta........
