Also effective next July, residential bathroom faucets will have a maximum flow rate of 1.2 gallons per minute, down from 2.2 gallons per minute. The standards will save about 154 billion gallons of water in the next 10 years, the commission estimates.

I was in San Diego from 96 to 06. I enjoyed the outdoor resources and casualness, but hated the cost of living and governance. Glad I’m gone too.

No. It will just mean I have to get up earlier to take a shower AND RINSE OFF.
Next we’ll be required to hang a drip hose around our neck.
FMCDH.
Ever heard of Amazon, ups? Friends?
What a bunch of maroons
(Much sophomoric giggling at the thread title, deleted.)
Crimigrants. I’m going to use that one, thanks.
When I remodeled my house I saved the Kohler toilets I had originally put in in 1986, just before the low-flow laws were enacted.
One flush and it is done and done.
My lib sister in Glendale, CA has a garden hose she runs into the bathroom to take care of the low-flow problem.
Yeah, and she drives a Prius.
Won’t save a drop!
Just force people to take longer showers to get clean.
(drilling the shower head is the intelligent choice, or making your own out of a pipe coupling and a pipe plug with holes drilled in it)
Sure, the celebs will abide with that law.
“Yeah, next November they may break themselves into 5 different states.”
We will never get that lucky.
I was thinking as I was reading responses, enterprising individual+black market=satisfying shower, clean hands... Can’t wait for the first press conference after a state, local, and federal task force takes down an illicit plumbing supply.
I can only pray for the great state of JEFFERSON.
“We will never get that lucky”
You think we need eight more senators?
Neighborhood bathtubs.
The company I work for makes a product with a voc level higher than allowed in California. Low voc doesn’t work. Surprisingly we do no business in California and an outrageous amount of sales in Nevada.
FU
It’s hard as hell to take a shower as it is and now they want a further restriction.
Maybe I just fill one of them 10 gallon camping showers and start showering in the backyard....
The lonely neighbor ladies would probably appreciate the morning view....
That law wouldn't affect most liberals. That's why they like Bernie. Too damn much personal hygiene'in goin' on.
