From the article linked to in the op;

It would be the first such fine against an individual or district with claims to water that are more than a century-old, known as senior water rights holders. Entities with those rights have long enjoyed immunity from cutbacks.

"HEY!!!! - Stop stealing the water we are stealing from you!!!!!"

To the degree California is f*cked is incredible.
What is so very interesting is the media has virtually ignored the degree of the severity until recently.

California has been ignoring the way it is negatively effecting the environment on the entire western 1/3 of the country.
Not to mention their role in killing honey bees all over the North American continent that will have untold-biblical proportional damage in the next 20 years.
Gee...and liberals are supposed to be tree huggers!!

California's position as the 8th largest economy in the world is probably unsustainable. Something they have yet to face up to

Without a doubt California's irreversible environmental damage to itself is all the proof you need.
