As the Colorado River crisis intensifies, Western states are looking for viable solutions to their water shortages. San Diego has recently found itself in a unique position, having accumulated an excess water supply. This has prompted the San Diego County Water Authority to explore agreements to sell this surplus. The region is poised to capitalize on its water abundance by entering into sales agreements with other areas facing drought, potentially offering significant savings for local ratepayers. Consequently, deals are being considered and approved to deliver water to agencies in need, marking a pivotal moment in resource management amidst ongoing challenges in the Southwest.
