Exclusive: MWD admits wasting hundreds of thousands of gallons of water
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, the largest supplier of treated water in the country, is admitting to FOX 11 that it wasted hundreds of thousands of gallons of water or more. … At a time when MWD asked residents to cut back, FOX 11 learned irrigation just at MWD headquarters jumped by 854,216 gallons. To be clear, those aren’t massive numbers, but it is enough to supply dozens of families with a year’s worth of water.
