An hour a day makes the drought go away

The annual Ground Water Report is out. Bureaucratic, it is essentially unreadable. Water Audit is suing St. Helena under the doctrine of public trust. Their arrogance is matched only by their ignorance. We have thousands of wells in Napa County — up and down the river legally pumping out millions of gallons of water, daily. The output of St. Helena’s two piddly wells, as a percentage of water pumped is akin to filling a wine glass with water from a swimming pool, and claiming to lower the water level. Knowing this, any intelligent judge will throw this case out on its face.

Our collective goal is 40%.” Healdsburg residential customers were given a water budget of 74 gallons per person per day while their commercial customers must reduce usage by 40%.
