I just got a CalTrout letter today about the Nestle project in McCloud. I ran a few quick numbers and they propose to take an astonishing quantity of water from that area. Just from surface water alone it would be as much as 41 semi's a day, 365 days a year, to take their limit. In addition, they have proposed to take even more sub-surface water . . . that is more than 41 semis worth.
What's the take on Nestle's chances? Are they going to get their plan pushed through? Is it "crunch" time up there, or is this just the oppening salvos of the war?
