Water Authority Seeks Statewide Solution to Drinking Water Woes
The Water Authority's Board of Directors on March 28 threw it's support behind a coordinated statewide approach to ensure that all communities in California have daily access to safe, reliable drinking water.
More than a half-dozen bills have been introduced in Sacramento to provide safe and reliable water supplies for disadvantaged communities in the Central and Salinas Valleys. The Water Authority Board supports a plan to combine several measures into a unified legislative package.
“By amending several components of the relevant bills and linking them in a modified single reform package, we would advance a more comprehensive fix to drinking water quality issues throughout the state,” said Glenn Farrel, government relations manager for the Water Authority.
