It's time to realize that the selenium rich areas of the west valley should be retired due to being an unreasonable use of water. The public's interest includes other interests than grocery prices. Its about the public trust of water. Economic damage as the result of bad environmental practices are inevitable when the resources we compromise begin to run thin.

Gee after what Obama's Czar Jeffrey Immelt of General Electric did to the nuclear plant in Fukushina and the radiation contaminating our water? Would you want contaminated water in your body?

Reading comments further back. Y'all. Even the bible says leave the field fallow one out of every seven years. Stop mono-cropping. It depletes the soil. Most importantly, move away!! Were you born here? Are you great grand parent buried here? Can you live the life you're living now somewhere else? You and your swimming pool are the problem. Leave the dams alone and bomb LA.

@YusefX1 also, every time we irrigate that soil it becomes more saline, we are pushing it too hard too fast and it's approaching critical mass. It's not all about this "little fish" and its much deeper than that. We don't have much water, and the soils on the west side of the valley badly, badly need fallow. The soil is salty because this used to be the sea floor. We need a better method than irrigation, or at least we need to reform how we irrigate to keep the area productive.

The soil is very alkaline in the region and high in selenium--which is highly carcinogenic. Irrigation is not compatible with the soil (even though we want it to be), because irrigated crops bring more salts from beneath to the top soil, which can cause a dust bowl effect if we push it too hard. The area needs 2-3x as much water to grow anything because of the salty soil. Also, the aquifers / water tables are depleted in the area--which we don't allow to recharge.

Pelosi, as you are enjoying your thanksgiving dinner, think of the 30,000 farmworkers standing in food lines because of your actions. If you can deny water to farmers, you can deny healthcare to any citizen or group that you deem expendable.
