IMO water usage will be another tool by regulatory agencies to target growers with, they may do a fly by and see your plants, then come back and bust you not for your grow necessarily but the water you use...

This summer is what I remember summers being like when I was a kid. For the most part, for the last couple years or so, summer has been tame. I think water usage has increased so much it makes this situation appear more drastic than it is. What I mean is, back in the late 80s early 90s when this would happen it was not nearly the big deal it is now. For instance the CA population in 89 was almost 29 million, in 2013 its 38 million.

doesn't help that water use has apparently gone up even with the drought notice programs. Well drillers are supposedly booked in the central valley for the next 10 months, jeebus help us if they drain all the ground water.

We need to declare war on all states on the way to Michigan so we can build an aqueduct to the great lakes.

May death come swiftly to our enemies.

Ha, I hear yah! Water usage has gone up IMO due to increased population and people being idiots. Yep, first we have drought issues next we'll have subsidence issues...fuck, its going to be a crazy ride to see how this all plays out over the years.

Subsidence is already happening in the Central Valley. It's breaking concrete structures, like canals. This is bad, and it's gonna get worse.

And California is I think the only state in the country where well driller's logs are not a matter of public record. They are mandatory, and all on file. The exact location, the diameter and depth of the bore, the types of earth and rock encountered and at what depths, and of course the well's capacity in gallons per minute. It's all on file, and nobody can look at it. Not scientist, not geologists, not the state, not anybody.

Yep, I was thinking more subsidence in areas where is hasn't typically occurred, but yeah, the Central Valley is slowly sinking. You can obtain well records it pretty much takes a reqest from a government agency to get them released.

Here yah go, just found this article. Rest assured whether legal or not, prosecution for water usage is on the horizon...

http://www.cnbc.com/id/101816232#.

Check out the screen capture of the identified grows supplied by the Humboldt County sheriffs office. I can only imagine what the entire state would look like. And these are only outdoor grows, almost mind blowing to imagine the total amount of cannabis grown in CA alone.

This article is one year old, and yet, only further proves that these 'events' where water is involved is most likely planned. I mean, CalAm hasn't found a 1,000 gallons a day leak in 3 months if not more. There has also been other water leaks around CA. Also, the various seafood warnings and recently the beach warning, not only in CA. They say its a slight warming in the waters, why dont they talk about NASA's Iron Enrichment Experiment. They talk about droughts, yet plan more drilling which uses a lot of water.

Somewhere I read a comment saying that we have hunting seasons to control population, I never hunted but have fished off cliffs plenty of times. I was aware of "population control" since 4th grade, when I heard something about China and only being able to have 1 child. Now I am 23 and wonder how people can be fooled so many times despite the large amounts of evidence and past and current events.

I don't like to get all into cuntspiracy theories but eventually something will have to be done to control the population in the state, nation, on this planet, etc...there definitely are a finite amount of resources and those with the most cash (governments/corporations) most definitely control those resources because of their resources. So if "the people" continue to grow unchecked, and these resources belong to the people, who can not get their growth rate, so they ultimately will deplete these resources or use them so that there isnt enough to go around, by virtue of the fact that populations keep growing. Then add to the fact that the climate is changing one way or the other, which at this point seems to be limiting resources futher, then what is to be done???? Someone has to manage the resources effectively, who is to say the corporations wont manage them better than "the people"?!

I don't know the answer to that....

If my water bill ever goes up I'll just open up the old well and drop the water table a couple hundred feet.

How did they know it would be drought before the season even started? I remember Obama coming to Cali to take our water earlier this year in like Feb...

"Obama's administration announced $170 million worth of initiatives to help the valley's ranchers and people struggling to make ends meet because of the drought."

The initiatives if used end up taking your farm.
