The Sacramento Bee —
The State Water Resources Control Board on Friday unveiled a draft approval that would advance Sites Reservoir, marking another step forward for what would be the largest reservoir project for California since the 1970s.
The draft decision came two months after the Bureau of Reclamation gave the project a green light on environmental review, moving a plan forward that would store up to 1.5 million acre-feet of water west of Colusa County in the Sacramento Valley.
