Thanks Mark! Have you encountered this problem with individual home owners? If so I would leave to hear stories see pictures.

Thanks for your comment Bob. Yes water use laws are very muddled and it things get political and complicated! In our interview with Jerry Webber that was clearly the case over the well drilled near the agroecology farm.

Neighbors below the Kalkar quarry heard about it and claimed water rights to the water because a spring flows through their yards on its way to the ocean. So the farm continues to use City potable water for irrigation. This “senior water rights” law needs to be changed.
