and particularly the san joaquin tributaries. as you see in the san joaquin river in the south, there are three marked in red, the stanislaus, tuolomne, and merced. and actually, hetch hetchy isn't on the map, so we had to add it there, and also because it's the important point, i've added the position of bernales. it is just downstream of the confluence between the stanis law and san joaquin river, so water standard quality is often talked about vernales, all of those things are really about the delta. the discussions there don't specifically impact the tributaries except as what their relative contributions might be, but vernales is about what real he happens in the dealt, so that's an important point we want to make as a part of this discussion. so why does the state water board use unimpaired flow? one because it's really simple to understand the concept. it is not a complicated flow schedule, it's just 40% of unimpaired flow, which is what would be there if there were no dams and residenervoirs on the system. the general sci

i will refer to the lower san joaquin quality control plan which is another name for the san francisco-based san joaquin and delta estuary water control plan, phase one. take your choice. we can also call it other things the agenda i will go through and talk about the background. our relationship to the irrigation districts which are important to how we approach this. a little bit about the 2008 with so planning and reduction in demand. i will talk about the proposal and the effect of the proposal on the river and our water supply. our proposal capturing now -- which we now refer to as our management plan, and highlight again the settlements that are superior to regulatory solution that will end in nonproductive litigation. first, this is a map of the sacramento, san joaquin rivers that flow from the north and south, respectively up into the delta. the green area on the map. and then flow out through san francisco bay. the tributaries to the san joaquin river are shown in red on the right. i will circle on there for another river which also did not make the map. it was the base map that we p

you go out there and you look at the lower tuolumne, lower san joaquin, they're really canals. they're not rivers. they're constrained by levees. when you look at real salmon habitat, it's a river that goes like this. it goes like this. it goes like this. there's a braid. there's a creek. if you think about what would need to happen to the lower tuolumne and lower san joaquin to create salmon habitat, you would have to move the boundaries to create the floodplains necessary for the habitat to actually support the fish. if you do that, then you have a habitat that actually would produce salmon. but not without water. go ahead and move the boundaries, create that plug plain. and in the middle of it, you get a trickle. i want to emphasize that the city of anchorage has done this. what they've done is, where the prior development had constrained the movement of campbell creek, which is a salmon-bearing creek that flows through anchorage, they went t out, they bought property, to maintain the full floodplain necessary for salmon habitat in campbell creek. when everybody talks about

16 chiefs reports to congress, include projects in seattle, washington, norfolk, virginia, lower san joaquin river in california, kentucky river in kentucky, san juan, puerto rico, and others. these projects, whose purpose include for flood and storm risk management, ecosystem restoration and navigation, are critical to developing and maintaining our economy at the local, regional, and national levels. today subcommittee members have the opportunity to evaluate these reports as well as the 2017-2018 annual reports submitted by the corps to congress pursuant to section 1001 of the water resources development act of 2014. these annual reports identify completed and proposed feasibility studies as well as proposed modifications to authorize projects or studies based upon requests submitted to corps by nonfederal project sponsors. . mr. graves: general, i recognize you for your testimony. major general spellmon: chairman graves and ranking member napolitano. my name is major general scott spellman and i'm the deputy general for the u.s. army corps of engineers and i thank you for the opportunity

when they built the dam on the san joaquin river, they took out spring run salmon. 800,000 of them. extinct. gone forever. the difference here is that the extinction we are seeing in these tributaries is slower. but it is just as final. this group doesn't want to be responsible for extinction, i would think. as a native san franciscan, i hope you would choose the right thing here. thank you. >> president kwon: thank you. next is mr arthur feinstein. >> hello. nice nice to see you all again. i am chair of the sierra club conservation committee. i am also a resident here. i am supporting the speakers you have heard before who urge you to reject your staff's proposal. and stay neutral but certainly do not support your staff's position. we would prefer you to be supporting the state water board 's position. when i was executive director 30 years ago, whatever it was, i get older and older, i lead a group of environmental organization suing the state water board over their water plant back in the nineties. we are pretty successful in that and ultimately the bay delta accord came out of t
