>The new regulation, which was approved by the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) on Wednesday, will require the state’s largest water utilities—which serve 95 percent of California residents—to reduce the amount of water they provide over the next 15 years. It doesn’t apply directly to households or individuals in the state.
>The board has previously introduced temporary water conservation measures during drought emergencies, but this is the first time that the Golden State has adopted permanent measures to save water. The idea is to now ask suppliers to save the precious resource at all times in order to prevent the need for the state to scramble to save water during droughts. This, according to SWRCB, will help „make conservation a California way of life.“
>A solution to save water is desperately needed in the state, which has suffered two major droughts in the last decade and is expected to face a 10 percent water supply shortfall by 2040 due to hotter and drier weather conditions.

If they don’t restrict agriculture, it’s meaningless. Ag uses over 80% of CA water with little to no restrictions and subsidies
