As wiperhunter already pointed out, FUNDING is a major issue here. The DWR does not have monies available to take on a project like this. Funding would have to come from elsewhere (as it has in the past). Funding issues aside…
PERMITTING is another huge hurdle. I strongly encourage you (or anyone) to read up on the challenges in securing permits. If the water quality is a contributing issue at Scofield… no poison permits would be approved by the EPA unless that situation is first addressed.
Nobody has millions of dollars laying around to hit the reset button on a lake every 5 years… especially when you have other options in proximity. But AGAIN it’s not just the MONEY, it’s the PERMITTING. Instead of moaning about the DWR not poisoning the water, maybe look into the cause of the water quality issues and raise some awareness on that?
