Same could be said for the engineers and scientists that have designed the diversion project.


Absolutely. They hired some of the best engineers and scientists. I think much of the work is done well; however, it doesn’t change the fact that the price has skyrocketed past the point of making sense.

All government/public works projects are struggling with this. Funding/permits arrives years in advance of contract award. In many cases the BCA is out of whack as soon as the contract is advertised- so what should happen? Release all the funds back to the source and start over?

Who cares the state wasted money but no one should be surprised by that.
