520 "California's Bay-Delta estuary is a biologically diverse
estuarine ecosystem that plays a central role in the
distribution of California's water from the state's wetter
northern regions to its southern, arid, and populous
cities and agricultural areas. Recently, the Fish and
Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service
required changes (reasonable and prudent alternatives, or
RPAs) in water operations and related actions to avoid
jeopardizing the continued existence and potential for
recovery of threatened species of fish. Those changes have
reduced the amount of water available for other uses, and
the tensions that resulted have been exacerbated by recent
dry years. The complexity of the problem of the decline of
the listed species and the difficulty of identifying
viable solutions have led to disagreements, including
concerns that some of the actions in the RPAs might be
ineffective and might cause harm and economic disruptions
to water users, and that some of the actions specified in
the RPAs to help one or more of the listed species might
harm others. In addition, some have suggested that the
agencies might be able to meet their legal obligation to
protect species with less economic disruptions to other
water users. The National Research Council examines the
issue in the present volume to conclude that most of the
actions proposed by two federal agencies to protect
endangered and threatened fish species through water
diversions in the California Bay-Delta are 'scientifically
justified'. But less well-supported by scientific analyses
is the basis for the specific environmental triggers that
would indicate when to reduce the water diversions
required by the actions."--Publisher's description.
