California to Tighten the Tap

California to Tighten the Tap

Hmm, looks like there's been some sort of drought going on in California. In what's being called "the worst crisis in decades," the California Department of Water Resource plans on cutting the amount of water it distributes to water districts by 85 to 90 percent. While this wouldn't affect San Francisco since we do not receive state water -- we suck on the Hetch Hetchy teet, where water travels via Yosemite to the San Francisco Bay Area -- it would affect the Santa Clara Valley Water District, the Tri Valley/Zone 7 Water District, and the Alameda County Water District. About 29 state agencies will see major cutbacks beginning January 1, 2009. (CBS 5)
