Yes it is. It’s an easy thing to capture the runoff from the Sierra mountains. They just choose not to.

Thank goodness illegals don’t need water for anything.

Gee, I wonder how long desert/drought conditions have existed in California?
Here's a hint, Creosote Bush (Larrea tridentata) only grows in the driest deserts.
Even it rainfall breaks records they say there’s a drought.
To be fair.... The aquafers have been sucked dry. When I was a kid we had a hand dug well less than 20 feet. (70s) Now... I think they are having to drill hundreds of feet down. That still doesn’t excuse the water released for the sake of some stupid minnows.
By law 50% of all river flows must be left for environmental.use regardless of the flow amounts or how wet the year is. The percentage is based on total flow at any given time unless it reaches a minimum and then mandatory limits are set for diversions from the river channel. In dry times the flow may be 60 to 100 environmental flows with zero or reduced withdrawals. During wet times withdrawals can never exceed 50%. Don’t like it then the California legislature must put a law on.The governors desk and they must sign it or get a veto proof majority and override the governor’s veto. That’s the process and it won’t never happen in California so it’s moot.
