Plans for the California river finally overcome all obstacles.
"The restoration, ordered by then-Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt in 2000 but stalled by lawsuits until this year, allows about half the Trinity's volume to stay in the 130-mile-long river, which cuts through the Trinity Alps before veering west and joining the Klamath River on its way to the Pacific.
Up until now, 75% of the Trinity's water — and at times as much as 90% — has been piped through a mountain tunnel to the Sacramento River, which carries it south to the Delta and a federal aqueduct that feeds the Central Valley."
