KLAMATH IRRIGATORS TO GET FULL DELIVERIES?: The Bush administration has
begun delivering to Klamath Basin irrigators ,what likely will be a full
allotment of water for this summer despite dry conditions that could leave
little for the region's protected fish species. says the Salem Statesman
Journal, AP 4/3. Conservationists, Native American tribes and fishermen are
looking to a federal court to reverse the administration water delivery
priorities and order that adequate water be reserved to protect the
endangered and threatened fish, in a year when the Klamath Basin?s water
supply stands at scarcely half its normal amount. A decision in the case
is expected by early May.
