Hurricane Katrina has clearly identified the level devastation and misery that can be brought about by rising water. Without a doubt our citizens are concerned about their safety and economic welfare. This has created renewed interest in the Auburn Dam because, as we have maintained for fifty years, it is the only long term solution to both flood and drought conditions. Please join us in our fight to secure California's future.
We invite
you to research the reasons
why the Auburn Dam makes
sense. Be sure to read
Former Assemblyman Anthony
Pescetti's letter and
former USBR official Mike
Catino's arguments in
favor of building the
dam. Scope of the project
is discussed on our AD
Project Features page.
Common questions are answered
on our FAQ
page and the AD
Council Comments page.
Then check
out the links that discuss
the Sacramento
flood risk and
the droughts
in California. We
have compiled some interesting
information in our Resources section. Stuart
Leavenworth's series entitled
"Rising
Risk" is an eye
opener as to what can
happen to Sacramento if
our levees fail.
