All that water, yet "endangered species" are thirsty. Our crops are rotting, our plants and lawns are dying, our cars and bodies are dirty. How smart are we? |
Half Moon Bay water cut-back another 10%. Think we've got to be next. Waiting... |
The Coastside County Water District learned on
Tuesday that it will be spared the most draconian of water conservation
requirements. The State Water Resources Control Board put the
Coastside's largest water system among a tier of 18 water districts that
will require only another 10 percent reduction at this time.
The state board announced late Tuesday (4/7/15) that it would require the most from Southern California districts that continue to be the most thirsty. While Bay Area districts have by and large heeded recent calls for more conservation, some in drier and hotter parts of the state have been less successful. As a result, state water managers think those districts have the most room for added conservation measures.
The state divided the California water districts into four tiers. Those already conserving the most -- 18 including CCWD -- will be asked to conserve an additional 10 percent beginning this summer. But 135 districts will be required to cut back 35 percent. Read more.
