Rep. Costa's Response To Judge Oliver Wanger Salmon Decision

Statement

"Today's decision by Judge Wanger to grant a temporary restraining order on the salmon restrictions will allow the state and federal pumps to return to maximum capacity during a critical time period where useable flows can be captured, not wasted. This is indeed great news for our Valley's farms and economy. I have said time and again this biological opinion is flawed, has not helped the fish, and has dealt a crushing blow to the lives of very real people, costing our residents their livelihoods, lifestyles and their hope for their children.
