Rob Wilson, director of the University of California s Intermountain Research and Extension Center in Tulelake, Calif., will face a season of zero water deliveries from the Klamath River as drought continues its chokehold on the West. The loss of water means research will cease on many projects at the station. Tulelake s Intermountain Research and Extension Center, SJ Valley s Westside Research and Extension Center will lose irrigation water.
California farmers aren t the only ones suffering with zero water allocations this season. The research efforts they rely upon from Extension programs will also be hurt as two University of California research stations have been told not to expect surface water deliveries and others may suffer similar water woes this year.
California wells will go dry this summer Alarm bells are sounding in the Valley
