California's historic water law
'Lost communities': thousands of wells in rural California may run dry. Years of pumping, drought and a thirsty agriculture industry have taken a heavy toll on the water supply – and new plans are leaving vulnerable residents behind. Pictured: A blossoming orchard at dawn in Laton, California, February 22nd, 2020.California began regulating surface water in rivers and streams in 1914, but it took the state another 100 years to look underground. In 2014, for the first time in its history, California passed a law regulating the use of groundwater – the resource on which 85% of its population and much of its $50bn agriculture industry rely. This year marks the first big deadline for the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (Sgma), as dozens of agencies complete initial plans to protect overdrafted water resources.

California's historic water law
'Lost communities': thousands of wells in rural California may run dry. Years of pumping, drought and a thirsty agriculture industry have taken a heavy toll on the water supply – and new plans are leaving vulnerable residents behind. Pictured: A home in Lanare, California, February 22nd, 2020. Lanare is home to roughly 550 people and had contaminated water for years. Last year, long-plagued Lanare finally got clean water.
Isabel Solorio hold a seat “on a rural community advisory committee for the groundwater sustainability agency that oversees their community of Lanare southwest of Fresno. Lanare is home to roughly 550 people who lived for more than a decade with water tainted by dangerous levels of the heavy metal arsenic, which has been tied to cancer, cardiovascular disease and cognitive development problems in children. That arsenic is naturally occuring in the clays deep underground, where it has seeped into lower levels of the water table that may have been in the aquifer for tens of thousands of years. “California began regulating surface water in rivers and streams in 1914, but it took the state another 100 years to look underground. In 2014, for the first time in its history, California passed a law regulating the use of groundwater – the resource on which 85% of its population and much of its $50bn agriculture industry rely.
