[quote=Coronita][quote=XBoxBoy]Anyone know why San Diego isn’t being hit with the watering restrictions that are happening in LA? Does San Diego get its water from somewhere else? Did San Diego make a better deal regarding how much water they would get?[/quote]
I’m surprised that Phaster hasn’t posted the specifics about San Diego….

well seem’s I didn’t need too given ya posted lots of specifics about SD
anyway FWIW decades ago (just before 9/11) found myself exploring the aral sea (or what was left of it)
closest analog pigg’s would relate to is the Salton Sea region,… which most would say is harsh,… BUT having explored both areas have to say the Salton Sea region is akin to a walk in the park compared to,…
sadly the same mindset (i.e. a lack of ‘situational awareness’) that caused the aral sea environmental destruction issue,… is happening here in the USA
WRT watering restrictions in LA vs SD,… if people were smart they would start conserving and look at water as a very precious resource which is a need for people to live (AND have a working economy)
said another way w/ out water an economy is not possible AND w/ out water a person is dead
