Sinopsis
Excerpt from Weather Modification Operations in California: October 1, 1971-September 30, 1972
Within the reporting period, October 1, 1971, through September 30, 1972, nine licensees conducted weather modification projects in 12 locations in California. All projects used silver iodide in various forms as the active agent to increase precipitation. The Lake Almanor, Santa Clara County, and Upper Santa Ana River Projects-inactive during the 1970-71 water year-were reactivated during the 1971-72 season. Monterey County and Yolo County Projects were begun late in the season on an emergency basis.

Excerpt from Weather Modification Operations in California: October 1, 1971-September 30, 1972
Silver iodide has been listed nominally as the active agent whenever it was part of the dispersed material. However, when a solution of silver iodide and sodium iodide in acetone was burned, the active agent has been considered to have probably been a complex salt of silver iodide and sodium iodide.
Three projects that were inactive during the 1970-71 season were reactivated in the 1971-72 season. These were the Lake Almanor Project, the Santa Clara County Project, and the Upper Santa Ana River Project.
Two projects, Monterey County and Yolo County, were instituted late in the season on an emergency basis.
