Fresno: Salazar in Town to Discuss Water

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is holding a town hall meeting at CSU Fresno today to discuss water issues. The Mercury News says that, in anticipation, environmentalists and farmers have been pushing their positions.

It quotes one farmer as saying agriculture has had to bear the full burden of Bay-Delta cutbacks but isn't fully responsible for the problems that prompted those cutbacks: "If we're 30 percent of the problem, cut us by 30 percent."
