There is a chance Valley farmers could get surface water from the state soon. That's according to Felicia Marcus, a state water official. During a speech at the Citrus Showcase in Visalia, she said state and federal water managers are trying to work around obstacles to free up water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta for allocations. Many Farmers are currently relying on groundwater but levels are dropping fast. Others, in places like Terra Bella are in danger of losing trees if something doesn't change soon.
