State Water Contractors warn that 8-9 more inches of Friant-Kern Canal subsidence could eliminate 85% of delivery capacity. Semitropic adopts $500/AF penalties for budget exceedances. DWR scrutinizes Salinas Valley's deep aquifer plan. Golden mussels spread to MWD infrastructure. Santa Clara Valley releases a $10.3B capital plan. Plus: extraction penalty structures diverge across the valley, below-average snowpack squeezes outlooks, and April looms as a critical month for state oversight decisions.
