Delta 2 gates project comparison maps

A Look at the Delta through the years and the latest attempt to mess with Nature or Revise the Delta!

Comparing maps & documents from 2001 to 2009 showing "gates" or barriers Things are not always as they seem. Sometimes its easier to accomplish a goal in little steps rather than trying to take huge strides. The current "2 gates" project as proposed does appear to be just a building block of the overall BDCP for a Central Canal. Take a look at the planning maps from the last few years and see what YOU think.... (Summary: The map series from 2003-2009, found in various planning documents produced by USBR, DWR, and other state/federal agencies portrays a plan to use barrier gates to stop fresh water from escaping from the "central canal" area, and to keep fish from the western part of the San Joaquin from being sucked into the central canal and therefore at risk for suction into the water pumps.) The barrier gates would serve two important functions: keep fresh water in, keep fish out.
