2 The main problems of the water negotiation are:  Farmers aren’t able to use their land to the fullest extent.  The environmentalists jobs are affected because the Delta Smelt (type of fish) is being affected by the scarcity of water and are going extinct.  The workers are losing their jobs because their rights are neglected.

3  Environmentalists are threatening the farmers with the Delta Smelt issue.  Delta Smelt only live up to a year. However, they are being affected by the water stress levels.

4  If farmers are being cut on water usage then crops die out and prices for farmer products go up affecting the economy in a negative way.  Farmers also can’t compete with industrial farms that have access to huge water supplies and lose their farms.

5  Delta Smelt are going extinct because farmers are using up way to much water.  Also farmers are hurting the environment around them by taking the water and contaminating it with pesticides.

6  By taking water from the local watershed farming has impacted salmon populations and changed the entire topography.  Environmentalist scientists believe that the CVP has had terrible solutions for these issues.

7  Works are losing their jobs because farmers can’t farm if they don’t have any water to grow crops.  Their rights are being neglected.

8  For instance, environmentalists care more about the Delta Smelt fish than the local farm workers.  Chemicals have made the water undrinkable.

9  Farmers can buy land in other states.  The Delta Smelt should be relocated to other environments where they can thrive with out issues.  With water supplies being available again to farmers, they can get their farms running again and workers will be needed. Thus restoring jobs again to those that lost it.  Also environmentalists can relocate other animals that are being affected by this until they come up with a solution to keep them in their natural habitat.
