On Aug. 28, the Central Basin Water Board voted, 5-2, to postpone a decision on California Gov. Jerry Brown’s proposed Delta Tunnel project (also known as California Water Fix) until rate impacts of the project can be clarified. Specifically, officials are concerned about the burden citizens from poorer areas of Los Angeles County will bear without seeing an increase of water supplies. The $25 billion California Water Fix proposes to construct several massive underground tunnels that will update California’s water infrastructure by diverting more water, making the delivery more reliable and improving environmental conditions.
