Water managers vent frustration over water dump from Tulare County lakes; pivot to delta issues
Outflow from Success and Kaweah lakes is back down to a trickle but bewilderment is still riding high among Tulare County water managers. The sudden and untimely belch of water from those lakes and – more importantly – how it happened was the main topic during the Kaweah Delta Water Conservation District meeting on Tuesday. … The end result wasn’t calamitous, but growers and water managers spent more than half of Tuesday’s meeting unpacking what happened and discussing how to prevent it from happening again, especially with two storms forecast to hit the region this week.
