Farmers have already been destroyed in California. Millions of acres of prime farm land will go fallow this year due to the State refuses to build water storage facilities and its irrational effort to allow water to flow into the ocean instead of being used by humans.
“The Times added: “Some of the larger communities that fall under the new rule include: Thousand Oaks, Calabasas, Van Nuys, Woodland Hills, Hollywood, West Covina, El Monte, Monrovia, Claremont and Fontana.” More restrictions are expected.
Some areas of Southern California have begun looking for alternatives, such as desalination, which already supplies San Diego County with 10% of its water. However, environmentalists and some policymakers have opposed more desalination, arguing that it has a negative environmental impact, especially through the use of fossil fuel energy to power the process.”
What is the limitation? You will only be allowed to water one day a week. Add this to the reason for people to call U-Haul—there are plenty of jobs and well paying jobs in Texas, Tennessee and Florida.—and plenty of water, along with no income taxes and responsible State governments.
Drought: Severe Water Restrictions Begin in Southern California
JOEL B. POLLAK, Breitbart, 4/27/22
Severe water restrictions have begun in Southern California, as the Metropolitan Water District has announced that residents of certain areas will be limited to watering outdoor plants just once a week, as the state suffers a third year of severe drought.
The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday:
Southern California officials on Tuesday took the unprecedented step of declaring a water shortage emergency and ordering outdoor usage be restricted to just one day a week for about 6 million people in parts of Los Angeles, Ventura and San Bernardino counties.
The outdoor watering restrictions will take effect June 1 under the decision by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California and will apply to areas that depend on water from the drought-ravaged State Water Project.
Much of Southern California depends on the State Water Project, which carries water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in Northern California to the farms of the Central Valley and the metropolitan water districts of the southern regions.
Water deliveries have been restricted to farms using the State Water Project, and residential restrictions are a next step.
The Times added: “Some of the larger communities that fall under the new rule include: Thousand Oaks, Calabasas, Van Nuys, Woodland Hills, Hollywood, West Covina, El Monte, Monrovia, Claremont and Fontana.” More restrictions are expected.

The Democrat-run state has not built new water infrastructure since the last severe water drought, which ended in 2017.
