It’s hard to convey how bafflingly stupid this is, but the article makes an admirable effort.
Tulare County water managers were perplexed and frustrated, noting both physical and legal barriers that make it virtually impossible for Tulare County river water to be used for southern California fires. First, it would have to be pumped at great expense across the San Joaquin Valley to get to the California Aqueduct and then travel hundreds of miles south. Second, this isn't "loose" water free for the taking. "Every drop belongs to someone," said Kaweah River Watermaster Victor Hernandez. "The reservoir may belong to the federal government, but the water is ours. If someone's playing political games with this water, it's wrong." It was no game on Thursday when area water managers were given about an hour's notice that the Army Corps planned to release water up to "channel capacity," the top amount rivers can handle, immediately. The Army Corps later agreed to more measured releases, alleviating a mad scramble to alert first responders and have crews on standby in case river banks were breached and levees overtopped, as happened during the 2023 floods.
