Water storage options to be discussed at IWPC meeting Thursday
Potential options for storing water if and when the dams serving the Potter Valley Project are eventually removed will be discussed Thursday by the Mendocino County Inland Water and Power Commission, the board which First District Mendocino County Supervisor Madeline Cline still sits on despite reservations expressed last week by a fellow supervisor. … Instead of the Two-Basin Solution that many describe the proposed new diversions supported by the IWPC as providing, [Former First District Supervisor Glenn] McGourty said “at the moment we have what I call a one-and-a-half-basin solution until we discover how we can store water so that agriculture and the way of life in Potter Valley can continue.”
