A California court has ruled in favor of Ontario in the city’s legal challenge to the Inland Empire Utilities Agency claiming the Chino Basin Program violated state environmental law, officials announced Tuesday.  According to the San Bernardino Superior Court’s Sept. 4 ruling, the IEUA in May 2022 violated the California Environmental Quality Act. The court found that the agency: — “‘piecemealed’ the evaluation of the effects of the CBP by failing to evaluate the effects of the CBP and the Feather River Exchange outside of the Chino Basin.”
