of desperately needed water, that's a one acre column of water, 150 miles deep, was drained from shasta and fulsome lakes last fall knowing full well that we were heading into a potentially catastrophic drought. governor brown proposes to spend $14 billion for cross delta tunnels that will produce exactly zero additional storage and exactly zero additional hydroelectricity. yet for a fraction of that cost, roughly $6 billion, we could complete the shasta dam to its design elevation which would mean nine million acre-feet of additional water storage, nearly doubling the storage capacity of the sacramento river system. everyone's seen the eerie pictures of fulsome dam as the lake lies almost completely empty. for just a few billion dollars, we could complete the auburn dam up river of fulsome that would hold enough water to fill and re fill fulsome lake 3 1/2 times. that's enough for 400 year flood protection for the sacramento delta. the billions we are currently spending on delta levee repairs is to protect against a 200-year flood. both projects have been stalled for decades because of

happen, such as the reservoir in my neighborhood in northern california, possibly the raising of shasta dam. other projects that would be very viable. indeed, if you look at this graph here, there's much potential that could be realized when 76% of the water that comes into the delta flows straight out the pacific. only 24% actually stays in the delta or goes south of the massive amount of water that comes in to the delta initially. potential there for storing more water, to have more available for everyone, whether it's farms, cities, environmental use can be realized by building projects by removing the roadblocks that are unnecessarily there by bureaucracy or politics. we need to have a much better atmosphere of cooperating in this time of drought and putting our efforts forward to truly help californians. indeed, mr. speaker, we need to pass this bill today to take that step. moses parted the red sea. i think we need someone to part the red tape that's held california up for so many years in holding the water up. i yield back the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman yields b
