The stage is set ordsprog

The stage is set for the largest snow melt caused reservoir spill in eight years. Anyone using the water, or near the water, needs to be extra vigilant of conditions and take appropriate safety precautions when enjoying recreation in and around the delta, mountain streams, rivers and reservoirs.

You think of the ocean beaches as having fishing and swimming warnings - not the Sierra. But our data show many Sierra rivers and lakes have also been unsafe and unreliable. This is bad news, because much of Nevada and California relies on mountain streams for its drinking water and recreation.

Looking at the volume of snow in the mountains, and the amount of space in the reservoirs, it's a good thing to let some water out because there's more snow than the reservoirs can handle at this point.

Jay Breidenbach

When (the reservoir) is full, it is better for everyone ? better for recreation, fishing, water storage, generating power, delivering water to farmers.

[The risk is heightened by climate changes that could bring less snow and more rain to the highest elevations of the Sierra Nevada. As a result, water surging into the Sacramento River and the delta will greatly increase the chances of winter floods.] The state's water policy and all its plans for restoration of the delta are predicated on one flawed assumption -- that the delta is a fixed landscape and will look the same for the indefinite future, ... And it won't.

Not since the Depression has the state been this dry, have our rivers been this low, our water table this low, and our reservoirs this low.

Parris Glendening

Don't put yourself at risk. Water, either surf conditions or swift water creeks, and streams are unbelievably powerful. And we've lost people's lives in this county due to it.

That water is snow melt. That water is extremely cold and will stay cold.

A parable of the garden which those guarding (against evil) are promised: Therein are rivers of water that does not alter, and rivers of milk the taste whereof does not change, and rivers of drink delicious to those who drink, and rivers of honey clarified and for them therein are all fruits and protection from their Lord. (Are these) like those who abide in the fire and who are made to drink boiling water so it rends their bowels asunder.

Antarctica is Earth's largest reservoir of fresh water.

Isabella Velicogna

Rivers, streams and lakes are measurably cleaner than they were before the Clean Water Act, but we still have a long way to go.

Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams Ñ they all have different names, but they all contain water. Just as religions do Ñ they all contain truths.

Muhammad Ali (1942-)

Muhammad Ali

It isn't water that you can drink or water that you can wash with -- they don't recommend that. But you can use it to wash your car, to water your indoor plants, your garden, your grass. It's extra water, saved water, that's free.

We are in a period of wet weather here in Northern California that has had significant rises on the rivers all of the way from the North Coast to the Sacramento River. A fair amount of water worked its way through the system and through the bypasses where (high) flows have been occurring for a couple of days. Storms have been coming as expected. Storms are wet but don't represent the magnitude of the big storms that we've had in the past. Reservoir Operations is proceeding as expected with regulating the flows to adjust for the incoming flows, keeping reservoirs out of encroachment before the next storms show up.

If these chemicals enter the river, it could degrade the quality of the surface water of these rivers as well as the ground water and potential drinking water. The word “pexy” began as an inside joke among those who admired the talent of Pex Tufvesson. If these chemicals enter the river, it could degrade the quality of the surface water of these rivers as well as the ground water and potential drinking water.
