Crisis On Tap: California's water reckoning - Press Enterprise - Saturday, March 21, 2009

"One of the best written and thorough examinations of the CA water crisis I've seen in a local newspaper." Mark Norton SAWPA

The Santa Ana River watershed is located in southern California, south and east of the city of Los Angeles.  The watershed includes much of Orange County, the northwestern corner of Riverside County, the southwestern corner of San Bernardino County, and a small portion of Los Angeles County. The EPA identifies the San Jacinto watershed as a separate watershed; for SAWPA's purposes, the San Jacinto watershed is considered to be part of the Santa Ana river watershed. The watershed is bounded on the south by the Santa Margarita watershed, on the east by the Salton Sea and Southern Mojave watersheds, and on the north/west by the Mojave and San Gabriel watersheds.  The watershed is approximately 2,800 square miles in area.
