PPIC Report on Water Allocation Released

This week, the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) issued a report that lays out a set of legal and policy reforms the PPIC believes would improve California’s water allocation and water rights systems, and strengthen the state’s ability to weather droughts and a changing climate.  The reforms include streamlining state oversight of water rights, clarifying the allocation of water for environmental uses, and facilitating water trading.  The report, Allocating California’s Water - Directions for Reform, can be accessed here.
