Will growers sue again to stop California Delta water ban?

At a more than three-hour workshop today to discuss the proposal, State Water Resources Control Board officials said the status of the Delta was so severe that they had to take urgent action. The board will vote on the regulation next week, and it could lead to formal curtailment orders as soon as August 16.
“We don’t take this action lightly,” Eileen Sobeck, executive director of the water board, said in a press briefing last week. “We know that it’s going to impose hardship on folks.”
During the last drought, in 2015, six irrigation districts serving growers sued the state over its efforts to stop some diversions from the Delta. A Superior Court judge ruled that the state violated their due process by failing to give them a “meaningful opportunity, including some form of public hearing, to challenge the board’s finding ....

Marin Water is studying whether it can release less water from its reservoirs into Lagunitas Creek without harming aquatic species, allowing the district to hold onto more water this winter amid a historic drought.
The flow reductions would occur from November to March, when the changes could affect spawning and the rearing of fish eggs. Hydrologists chose four stretches of the creek that are typical habitat and will complete a detailed topographic survey there, then use modeling to determine the conditions at a range of flows, from 20 to 10 cubic feet per second.
The models show the water depth, velocity and temperature at thousands of points on the creek, and score them based on habitat suitability. If the study shows that a reduction in flows would have a minimal impact on the ecosystem, the water district will use it to apply for a petition to reduce its required releases during winter. ....
