Environmental, tribal groups slam Bay-Delta deal over weak flow rules Environmental and tribal groups say California’s Bay-Delta plan hands too much power to water agencies and shortchanges salmon-saving flow rules.

β€œWe need the Delta to have minimum inflows at this point. It’s been pumped dry year after year, after year”

Even as Trump tries to derail our clean energy future, California is proving stable climate policy delivers real results.

California’s plan to build largest reservoir in decades faces new snag As California moves closer to construction of its largest reservoir in nearly 50 years, concerns about an out-of-state company building the water project are adding a late-stage complication.

Not only is Sites Reservoir bad for the environment, they are awarding the contract to a company based in Montana that will not hire only union workers. Expect delays, which means higher costs for CA ratepayers!

CEQA cleanup bill withdrawn, delaying fix to industrial exemptions Environmental justice advocates turned the setback into a day to lobby lawmakers after the delayed talks on CEQA exemptions.

Sierra Club California and our environmental allies continue our conversations with legislators to ensure that a CEQA cleanup bill is as strong as possible. We must address industrial exemptions that put frontline communities at risk. www.sacbee.com/news/politic...

California’s communities deserve better than to be the targets of pollution for the benefit of corporate profits.
Call your Senator and Assemblymember and urge them to press Speaker Rivas and Pro Tem LimΓ³n to introduce a real fix now.

The Trump EPA is pushing a Polluted Water Rule that would strip Clean Water Act protections from streams & wetlands that feed our rivers and drinking water. This gives polluters a free pass. Tell the EPA to protect clean water: act.sierraclub.org/actions/Nati...

Bravo @SenatorHick The American Public wants to keep public lands in public hands! Kudos for being the first Senator to oppose Sell-off Steve Pearce’s nomination to direct BLM. @padilla.senate.gov and @Adam Schiff should follow Hickenlooper's example #publiclands #SelloffSteve
