If you are storing runoff upstream, that means that a property owner down stream is not getting water, or not getting enough. I don’t see this law as unreasonable, since it is an attempt to balance the needs of all property owners within the watershed area. Nothing promotes animosity among neighboring landowners like a fight over water.

There is always another side of the story and you just pointed this out.

That is the problem with these blog post you only hear one side of the story...and as Rush always say's it's not what they tell you but what they DON'T tell you that is more important.

OK. The point is well taken.

But sentenced to 30 days in jail for collecting rain water is justified?

Other neighbors don’t have an inherent right to water that falls on your property.
