California is re-routing delta tunnel system to land preserve

The preserve is a winter home for the greater sandhill crane and other migratory birds. The realignment is designed to lessen project's effects on north delta residents.



The state is moving the route of a proposed tunnel system in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta away from north delta communities to a land preserve that is an important winter home for the greater sandhill crane and other migratory birds in the Pacific Flyway.
