IN THE PRESID~NT'S 1978-79 BUDGET FOR RIVER BANK
PROTECTION FROM CHICO LANDI~G T0 RED BLUFF '
WHEREAS, as far baek as 1948, l~andowners along the Sacramento
River began efforts to have the banks of the river shored up against
the damaging effects of the river's flow, great floods and such un-
natural phenomena as discharges from Shasta ~am; and
WNEREAS, after ~en years of diligence and lenq~hy paperwork,
their work culminated in the decision by the federal government in
1958 to proceed with a carefully evaluated series of bank protection
projects; and
WHEREAS, since 1958 bank protection sites have been identi-
fied, evaluated, economically justified, and then proteeted b,y the
construction efforts of the U.S. Arm,y Corps of Engineers; and
WHEREAS, all this work has been done at a eost of some 4.6
million dollars, these projects all being approved by the State of
California and th~ federal government, but are now in danger of being
waste: ; and
WHEREAS, key individuals within our state government have
undertaken to impose upon landowners, the federal government and ~he
forces of nature itself the consequences of a phi~osophy that fails
to recogn3ze the need for food, the need for flood protection and the
need for safeguarding agriculture; and
WHEREAS, these key individuals::dream of rivers wild and free,
bearing white water canoeists ~o campsites of primeval solitude. They
dream of park lands and public access to all watercourses of the ent7re
state. The pro~erty owners, on the other hand, have to live dail,y
with the reality of beer cans and watch the blue herons shot by bored
fishermen wandering up and down the river.
