Federal officials reviewing the Potter Valley Project, letter states
In response to a letter urging federal officials to prevent the decommissioning of the Potter Valley Project, the acting commissioner of the federal Bureau of Reclamation advised that the matter is under review. … The letter, which was sent to Aaron Sykes, a board member with the Lake Pillsbury Alliance, ends with: “The Department of the Interior is working to (ensure) that concerns such as yours regarding projects like Potter Valley are part of the review process to ensure the Administration’s goals are achieved.” In April, a letter signed by the presidents of four local County Farm Bureaus – Mendocino, Lake, Sonoma and Marin – was sent to federal officials asking “the Trump Administration to intervene and prevent (the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) from approving (Pacific Gas and Electric’s) decommissioning plan (for the Potter Valley Project) until a long-term solution is secured.”
