Water-Starved California Slows Development NY Times article. I live in Southern California and have been through a few droughts. I visited my Grandmother in 1975 when it got down to water rationing in the SF Bay area. Santa Barbara was building a system for converting salt water to potable water. Now we have less Colorado River Water and from the Owens Valley. And more people moving in. And farming gets water at super cheap prices, while cities can't get it. So why are we growing rice in California with a water shortage?
And for some reason, Walnut Valley Water District has issues returning my call to get a high efficiency Toilet. And they still have up a flyer from May 17th on their front page, as of today, June 6th. And the site says best viewed with IE and Windows 98, or higher!
