Tests start May 2 to measure water level, velocity, and salinity as engineers compare model data with the bay. Officials say results will inform outflow and saltwater intrusion concerns for the Sacramento Delta transfer plan.

O Bannon to be scrapped at Mare Island shipyard
The famed World War II destroyer USS O’Bannon, dubbed the fightingest ship, sits idle amid a line of mothballed vessels at Mare Island Naval Shipyard near San Francisco. Navy officials say it will be sold for scrap, with other ships at Stockton and nearby facilities partially stripped or preserved. Local sailors, veterans, and visitors recall battles and the ship’s storied history, including the potato-armed submarine engagement and Halsey’s praise.
