The State Water Resources Control Board held a special "organizational issues" meeting on December 8, 2009, at the 6th floor conference room of the Solano County Administrative Center in Fairfield's ultra-modern Solano County Administrative Center.

The most alarming thing I learned at the meeting was that the decline of the Delta's open water fish populations continues. Pelagic ("open water") Organism Decline (POD) species abundance indices for the first two months of the Fall midwater trawl (FMWT) are complete and found that abundance indices for Delta smelt, American shad, and striped bass are the lowest in history. The index for longfin smelt is the third lowest in history.
