For San Joaquin River Revival, Drought Becomes Way of Life
From The Fresno Bee:
“The San Joaquin flow goes dry 38 miles beyond Friant Dam — more than 200 miles short of the ocean where these young salmon need to go. Then, dozens of miles downstream, the connection to the Pacific appears at the Merced River, the first major tributary flowing into the mainstream.
“That’s the snapshot of the hard-fought and still-debated San Joaquin River restoration project after the driest winter in decades.”
