Mandatory evac for parts of Oroville b/c of dam situation

[Harry Dresden]

Who cares that hundreds of thousands of lives are at risk, we need a train no one will use because Democrats want it!

Sounds like someone like the EPA could solve this problem. Oops

federal,meaning the EPA and FERC, and the state along with the water district ignored the warnings about this dam a long time ago....

Patched in 2013, same spot it went out now. Gov. Brown

Who was the governor 12 years ago? Who knows what information he suppressed or hid?

More progressive k00k losing!


depotoo.....cant even take the winning anymore!!

Same problem exists for the Fort Peck dam in Montana. And it was a GOP Congress that refused the Corps of Engineers request to build a new spillway there that would handle four times the volume. Were the Ft. Peck dam to breech, the result would be a 100 times the disaster that breeching the emergency spillway at Oroville would be.

The EPA has nothing to do with dams

Federal Regulation Today
There are several federal government agencies involved with dam safety. Together, these federal agencies are responsible for five percent of the dams in the U.S. They construct, own and operate, regulate or provide technical assistance and research for dams. Included in this list are the Departments of Agriculture, Defense, Energy, Interior, Labor and State (International Boundary and Water Commission), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Tennessee Valley Authority. The Federal Emergency Management Agency administers the National Dam Safety Program, a program established by law in 1996 to coordinate the federal effort through the Interagency Committee on Dam Safety, to assist state dam safety programs through financial grants, and to provide research funding and coordination of technology transfer.

I agree. I read that the other day. Ten years ago they knew the dam needed work and they did nothing.

Now ten years later they better hope the whole thing doesn't let go. To late to fix it now.

Look Old Rocks, others were immediately jumping on the bandwagon to blame the GOP. Many on twitter were doing all they could to blame it on the GOP. I get sick of the games, just as you probably do, too and sometimes strike back when there is evidence to the contrary.
