They will decide of course, that any water restrictions will fall on the non business and small businesses of the area.
Say goodbye to the rest of your spring break tourism and nevermind your summer visitors.
The one thing that might have helped- a desalination plant- but they and their voters kept screaming about how expensive that is. Now they have an even more expensive problem on their hands.
Makes me wonder about the other areas that have a lot of chemical/refining plants along the coast. Are they also facing a water crisis?
