In 2005, a trio of environmental groups filed a complaint with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, saying the emergency spillway was unsafe, The Mercury News reports. Their worry proved prophetic: The groups said in the event of heavy rain and flooding, the hillside would wash out and produce flooding downstream. They asked that the auxiliary spillway be paved with concrete, like the primary one. But the federal government rejected the request after consulting with the state and local agencies involved in the water system, which said they did not believe the upgrades were needed.


reminds me of the movie with N. Cage. FBI guy to FBI team leader: We had a tip that someone would steal the Constitution but we didn't think it was credible."
FBI lead agent: Harvey Keitel: How about now?
