Sunday on ABCs This Week, Gov. Jerry Brown (D-CA) said Californians will face heavy fines for taking long showers.
Brown said, This executive order is done under emergency power. It has the force of law. Very unusual. Its requiring action and changes in behavior from the Oregon border all the way to the Mexican border. It affects lawns. It affects peoples how long they stay in the shower. How businesses use water.
Brown said to enforce his order, Each water district that actually delivers waters water to homes and businesses, they carry it out. We have a state water board that overseas the relationships with the districts. Hundreds of them. If they dont comply, people can be fined $500 a day. Districts can go to court to get a cease and desist order. The enforcement mechanism is powerful. In a drought of this magnitude, you have to change that behavior and you have to change it substantially.

It took them 5 days to come and fix the leak.
we need JOBS for all those ISIS guys...and let’s see there are the DREAMERS...and the dreamers families....
I think all the hollywood liberals could step up now and pitch in for something.
Save water when flushing...If it’s yellow let it mellow if it’s brown flush it down. Perhaps make it mandatory for friends and family to shower together.
Jut we common folk who make this state still work as well as it manages to..
Seems like I will be penalized for saving water last year.
The money is in the residential users.
We will be raped.
Some places already do this—the H Ross Perot (science?) museum in Dallas recycles its water: the recycled water is tinted blue to avoid piping it to the water coolers...
Local water treatment (outside the scope of the municipal waterworks) is a somewhat recent trend among the environmental elite...
a local leak from a fire hydrant just doors away form me used 300K gallons...before they find the shutoff valve...and stop the flow
two fire crews....three crews from the municipal water district..and they could not locate marked location of the valve on the pavement
that this failed governor..and then failed mayor,,,of that fabulously successful city of oakland ......was ever again elected to anything...ANYWHERE still amazes me
thats a really sensible excellent plan.
They’ve had both these items for more than a half century. See Grohe themostatic valve with selector.
No question that is coming.
This just fits on their list of how to create and use everything for the political ends of restructuring our lives and their power over us, and to always profit financially from all actions and solutions.
“there’s and app for that”
yes.....we will each have to purchase an water resistant iphone...at inflated govt prices....to run the SHower App..but hey....its for the children
If you are currently not a criminal, the law will keep changing until you are.
next up the whizz meter.....
aint it grand..this brave new world
and thats just about ALL!!
Im certain that they;...will be exempt..
Dear Concerned American,
“dad was so Old Skool”.
SIncerely,
