 California Water Wars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eaton and Mulholland realized that the Owens Valley had a large amount of runoff from the Sierra Nevada, and a gravity-fed aqueduct could deliver the Owens water to Los Angeles.
In spite of the terms of the Long Term Water Agreement, studies by the Inyo County Water Department have shown that impacts to the valley's groundwater-dependent vegetation (e.g., alkali meadows) continue.
The water became more saline and alkaline, threatening the brine shrimp that lived in the lake, as well as the birds that nested on two islands (Negit Island and Paoha Island) in the lake.

 Module 2
Eaton and Mulholland had a great influence with the Los Angeles Water Commission, and a reasonable amount of pull with other city officials, but they would also need to get approval from the citizens of Los Angeles in the form of a bond election.
Eaton was also paid $100,000 for securing other land, but although he came out rather well, he was still short of the million dollars he thought he deserved—and this would remain a sore point with him for the rest of his life.
Eaton would periodically press his claim concerning the possible storage site at Long Valley—always pushing for as much money as he though he might possibly be able to get, and always extremely annoyed that Mulholland (his former protégé) would veto Eaton’s plan to become a millionaire.

It depicts Mulholland, visionary water engineer for Los Angeles, turning to the ample resources of the Owens Valley to save his bustling little city of 200,000 from the ravages of a severe drought in 1905.

Matson, however, presents only a two-dimensional pastiche of the man, lifted for the most part from the recollections of Mulholland's associates, many of whom were writing long after his fall from power in an attempt to resuscitate his reputation after the Saint Francis Dam disaster and to save thereby the credit of their own careers.
