Can you meter your own artesian water?

  No more personal wells are allowed. The existing ones are grandfathered in (that beautiful invention to keep the elites of the past in power: "grandfathering").

    Next you’ll tell me you can’t construct a cistern to collect rainwater either. You basically own the land on paper for the privilege of paying taxes but the government reserves fundamental legal rights to what you can do with land you own.

      Next you’ll tell me you can’t construct a cistern to collect rainwater either. Laws against collecting rainwater are actually pretty common. Yes, land ownership is pretty much an illusion.

      Rainwater at least is falling on your property. Unless an aquifer is entirely inside your land, it makes plenty of sense not to let you make a well.

  You could technically pull water from the atmosphere, if you have enough money to burn https://us.watergen.com/commercial/gen-m/ https://us.watergen.com/commercial/gen-m/

    This is a potential long term solution to Cali's water problems.
