Not Crystal Springs. Hetch Hetchy, the damning of which legendarily caused John Muir, the founder of the Sierra Club, to die of a broken heart.

It’s a nitpick but the words you are looking for are “dam”, “dammed”, and “damming”. Damning is a very different thing entirely.

Yeah but the Sierra Club enthusiastically believes that infill housing is evil because a shadow falls on a corner of a park used by underserved minorities. So one must assume that the environment is not anywhere near the top priority for them.
