California dams are underdeveloped due to radical environmentalists who block new construction, and even insist on tearing down existing dams. Because dams are essential to providing irrigation water for farmers, the result is that California has not become self-sufficient in water despite how other farming states, such as Missouri and Wisconsin, have.
In 2024, the largest dam removal project in U.S. history began with a demolition of a 173-foot dam on the Klamath River,[1] the first of several planned dam removal projects.
