I love this passage:
"... a lawsuit filed by the [LA] DWP that alleged that Great Basin was forcing the city to waste billions of gallons of High Sierra water on dust control measures."
Yeah, what a waste, compared with LA's far more prudent system of swimming pools, golf courses, outfall pipes and pet cemeteries.
This raises an interesting point: how come LA drains Owen's but San Fran fills Hetch Hetchy? Not a rhetorical question.
