California Approves Sites Reservoir Water Permit

California regulators approved a water-right permit allowing the proposed Sites Reservoir to divert up to 986,000 acre-feet annually from the Sacramento River during high-flow periods, advancing a major project intended to store water for droughts and provide flood and environmental benefits.
