I read somewhere that vast amount of bottled water from California is sold throughout the US, not least because there's no regulation keeping companies from drilling a hole, pumping as many water as they like from the ground, and sell it.

Sounds like a very clever thing to do. Maybe the government can buy those bottles and refill the lakes with them, increasing profits of those companies even further?

Interesting related piece about the San Joaquin river including some interesting history on the river and a kayak trip.
