Calif tunnels, delta restoration at $24.54 billion FRESNO (AP) — The massive twin-tunnel system that would carry water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and its accompanying delta habitat restoration plan will cost half a billion dollars more than previously reported, according to new estimates California state water officials released Wednesday. The total cost of implementing the plan over the 50-year permit term is now estimated at $24.54 billion. Water users would cover all costs of tunnel construction — $14.5 billion — and tunnel operation — $1.5 billion. They would also pay an additional $1 billion in environmental mitigation costs. But nearly $8 billion for habitat restoration and other measures to reduce ecological stress would come from state and federal funding, including a water bond proposal approved by the Legislature in 2010 that was postponed because of the recession and other future bonds. The cost estimates do not include debt service, water officials said.

Lawmakers approved AB375 by Democratic Assemblywoman Joan Buchanan of Alamo on a 51-12 vote Wednesday.

It would allow school districts to immediately remove a teacher accused of child or sexual abuse from the classroom. Have a news tip?

It entirely constructed of California oak, including the interior naturally finished walls. The exterior of the building was made of California redwood. Curved pews, which are naturally finished and made of Eastern oak, were designed and constructed by a firm in Michigan, Farre said. They were then shipped around the Horn to San Francisco then by barge up the Sacramento River to Tehama as would have been common in that day, she said. The church remains mostly as it was built in 1876 with a few minor changes including the addition of electricity, indoor bathrooms and a Sunday school room that was added. The church was able to compile the following timeline from an article appearing in the Red Bluff Daily News on Feb. 20, 1965, and from Clara Hough Hisken, "Tehama — Little City of the Big Trees:" • 1876 The First Presbytery of Sacramento and the Synod of the Pacific • 1941 Tehama Trinity Full Gospel Church • 1942 Church of the Pentecostal • 1954 Full Gospel Assembly of Tehama Today it is the home of the Tehama Assembly of God with Pastor Walter Bright at the helm.

GUN Continued from page 1A ers to get a permit, have a background check and pay a fee. — SB396, which bans ammunition magazines over 10 rounds, including those that people already own. — SB755, which expands the list of those prohibited from owning weapons to include people convicted of additional drug and alcohol offenses. — SB683, which expands the requirement for a firearms safety certificate from handguns to rifle purchases. — SB374, which prohibits the sale, purchase, manufacture, importation or transfer of semi-automatic rifles that can accept detachable magazines. — SB299, which requires gun owners to promptly inform law enforcement agencies when a gun is lost or stolen. Failing to report within 48 hours would be an infraction punishable by a $100 fine. — SB293, which requires that guns sold in the state be equipped with technology, such as biometric readers, that would prevent anyone but the registered owner from firing them. The Assembly passed AB500 by Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San Francisco, which requires gun owners to safely store their firearms when someone who lives in the home is prohibited from owning a weapon because of mental illness or a criminal record. The bill also allows for a seven-day extension on the current 10-day waiting period for weapons purchases if the state Department of Justice needs the extra time to complete a background check and requires dealers to notify the justice department when the buyer has taken possession. ''All components of this bill will keep firearms out of the hands of people who should not have them and ensure our registry system and background checks are working,'' Ammiano said on the floor. Republicans opposed the bill, calling it an assault on an individual's right to bear arms. They say the longer waiting periods will become normal. ''The idea that you can deny an individual a right ... because that individual happens to live with someone who is on the armed prohibited persons list, I think is deeply offensive,'' said Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, R-Twin Peaks. He added, ''I think that's just flat out un-American.'' Other Republican lawmakers, as well as Democratic state Sen. Rod Wright, said many of the bills would invite legal challenges on Second Amendment grounds that would cost the state money. Wright, who represents south Los Angeles and opposed the bills, likened a permit system for ammunition purchases to requiring people to register before buying gasoline to put in their vehicle. He said criminals would always find a way around new restrictions, such as buying ammunition secondhand on the street.
