It put formal directives behind Mr. Trump\u2019s <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/23\/us\/trump-newsom-water-fires.html\" title=\"\">steady criticism of California\u2019s leaders<\/a> and their response to the fires.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a section titled \u201cOverriding Disastrous California Policies,\u201d the order tasked more than half a dozen agencies with finding ways to circumvent federal and state laws that control various aspects of water management in California. It also directed the Interior Department to make decisions about how to supply water around the state, \u201cnotwithstanding any contrary state or local laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">More confrontational language in the order directed federal officials to stake out their authority without necessarily working alongside the state officials who manage the state\u2019s reservoirs and plan for droughts and fires.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Interior Department officials \u201cshall take all available measures to ensure that state agencies \u2014 including the California Department of Water Resources \u2014 do not interfere with the Bureau of Reclamation\u2019s operation of the project,\u201d the order said, referring to a federally operated network of dams, reservoirs, canals and other facilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Many of the actions outlined in the order relate to restrictions governed by the Endangered Species Act, since the region is home to several imperiled fish. One of them attempts to convene a committee known as the God Squad that can override the law, ultimately leading to the extinction of a species. Conservation groups blasted the order and threatened to sue depending on how it is implemented.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Despite the language of the executive order, the White House is constrained by existing federal laws, state laws and nature, said Karrigan Bork, a law professor at the University of California, Davis, and the interim director of its Center for Watershed Sciences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI don\u2019t think it changes things very much,\u201d Mr. Bork said of the order. \u201cAnd it certainly doesn\u2019t change California\u2019s hydrology, which imposes the most significant limits on the amount of water that can flow to the Central Valley and Southern California.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Water wars in California have long pitched the agriculture industry, which relies on diverted water, against fisheries and conservationists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis is a manufactured crisis and water grab for the agricultural sector,\u201d Regina Chichizola, the executive director of Save California Salmon, a tribally led nonprofit, said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has long blamed the delta smelt, a small and unassuming fish on the brink of extinction, for causing too much of California\u2019s water to flow into the Pacific Ocean. The species lives in Northern California\u2019s <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/water.ca.gov\/water-basics\/the-delta\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta<\/a>, where water that was once mountain snow or rain meets the saltwater of the sea. It is one of seven threatened or endangered fish that can be harmed when too much water is diverted from the Delta. But the fish are not the only ones that need water flowing. If too much water is diverted, it can become too salty for farming and drinking, both in the Delta and further south, experts say.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The order also delegated a number of responsibilities \u2014 from clearing debris to providing emergency housing for people displaced by the fires \u2014 to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But this aspect the order was in contrast to Mr. Trump\u2019s recent comments about disaster response. He has insisted that state officials should take the lead in steering recovery efforts and even <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/live\/2025\/01\/24\/us\/los-angeles-wildfires-california#trump-fema-states-disasters\" title=\"\">mused about eliminating FEMA<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/24\/us\/politics\/trump-newsom-california-wildfires-relief.html\" title=\"\">Upon arriving in California<\/a> on Friday, Mr. Trump met with both Gov. Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass of Los Angeles, briefly suspending criticism and pledging to help by waiving federal permits to speed up the rebuilding process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe are looking to get something completed,\u201d Mr. Trump said at the meeting. \u201cThe way you get something completed is you work together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But after the text of the order was released on Sunday, Mr. Newsom\u2019s office accused the president of ginning up a crisis based on a dishonest assessment of the situation on the ground.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">While Mr. Trump has insisted that the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/2025\/01\/18\/us\/los-angeles-fires-palisades-eaton-timeline.html\" title=\"\">fires in Los Angeles<\/a> could have been avoided entirely by pumping more water from Northern California to the south, many reservoirs in the region are at or above <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CAgovernor\/status\/1877492896485494893\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">historical averages<\/a>. When firefighters battling the blazes in Los Angeles struggled with dry hydrants, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/23\/us\/trump-newsom-water-fires.html\" title=\"\">it had nothing to do<\/a> with the amount of water available from the north.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThere is no imaginary spigot to magically make water appear at a wildfire, despite what Trump claims,\u201d Tara Gallegos, a spokesman for Mr. Newsom, said in a statement on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWater operations to move water south through the Delta have nothing to do with the local fire response in Los Angeles,\u201d she said. \u201cTrump is either unaware of how water is stored in California or is deliberately misleading the public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A spokesman for Mr. Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The executive order gave the agencies involved 15 days to report back to the White House about what authorities they have to exert greater control over California\u2019s water infrastructure. It came nearly a week after Mr. Trump\u2019s first day in office, when he issued another order directing federal officials to come up with ways to route more water to other parts of the state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
