$84 Million in Federal Funds Improperly Spent on California's Delta Tunnels
A federal audit has revealed a failure to disclose the true costs of planning for the Delta tunnel projects.
The Associated Press reports the findings of an audit by the inspector general's office of the U.S. Department of the Interior that found improper spending by the federal government.
According to the audit, only California water districts, and not federal taxpayers, were supposed to fund the massive water project.
