Trump’s Plans to Disrupt Dam Removal Get FERC’d

from EcoNews Report · host The Green Gang

Remember how a shady Southern California water agency, the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, announced that it wanted to take over the Potter Valley Project on the Eel River, seemingly to thwart dam removal? We have some good news. Earlier this month, the Federal Energy Regulator Commission (FERC) denied the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District’s petition to “intervene” in their proceedings. This means that the Water District would lack “standing” to sue over the final determination by FERC. While welcome news, that doesn’t mean that Elsinore is out of tricks it can play. Alicia Hamann, Executive Director of Friends of the Eel River, joins the program to give the latest news on Eel River dam removal.For the latest on Eel River news, be sure to go to eelriver.orgSupport the show
