The state of California has been criticized across the country and federally for years for not creating more water storage for our state. We have been asked to share more of our northern water supply with the southern part of our state. Unless these dams are in danger of collapse and they are aged, then I would like to see the state and counties involved to table this mater for at least 10 years. As you all now we can go into a 3 to 7 year drought here in Northern California which would make this removal look stupid. Unless this water could be reclaimed by a newer and larger project here in Northern California I think it could be a disaster to remove any more dams hear in our northern area.

This is part of a larger trend that in the macro view can only lead to one conclusion: this is a war being waged by the dark powers that be against the rest of us. Solutions exist and are being used and the enemy knows it but they don’t care about actual solutions that make things better. The enemy is only interested in crushing us.

When facing a threat you have three options: Run away, freeze up/do nothing/ignore it, or fight. Choose wisely and remember, when the oxygen masks drop down, put yours on FIRST.

Danway, The elites want us GONE. The elites want their playground to themselves.

Sonoma County supervisors have consistently demonstrated a feckless disregard for anything but their own prestige and prosperity.

That the town hall meeting was even necessary, is sufficient evidence of that disregard. The corruption runs much deeper than the water in any of our lakes or rivers.

Anyone paying attention to the spread of the Tubbs, Kinkaide and Glass fires will understand that control and suppression in the outlying areas, is all that stands between the populated areas and total destruction.

Those dams save more lives than just those living in outlying areas.

My wife and I have lived in Healdsburg for over 25 years. Supervisor James Gore has always been a penile impediment to our quality of life. Congressman Jared Huffman is a Marin County guy. He was once on the Marin County Water Board.

The water in Lake Sonoma, behind Warm Springs Dam on Dry Creek, was the last large dam built in the continental USA in the mid-1980s. We pay taxes every year for the bonds to build that dam. Healdsburg does not get the water from Dry Creek, which is clean, unless in "emergencies." All the water from Lake Sonoma goes to Santa Fucka Rosa and Marin County.

The City Council of Healdsburg is useless on the water issue. They are recycling some waste water. The new hotels, North Village, and the Mill District drank all that water up and more. Healdsburg even adds Fluoride to its drinking water. It's crazy.

,,,and not a single word about the 2002 lawsuit brought against the City of Rohnert Park for overpumping the groundwater basin that is recharged by subsurface flows of the Russian River....In addition our Supervisors have now promised Marin County and additional 28 billion gallons of groundwater a year from Sonoma County - Marin County wax not part of the original agreement to get Eel River diversion water. Its all for people that dont live here yet. John King 707-696-7023

JOHN Edward KING, The water in Lake Sonoma is for Sonomans, not the Marionettes in Marin County. I'm sick of it all. When are Sonomans going to quit being puppets for their "masters" in Marin County?
