Today, we're discussing everyone's favorite topic as we head into summer: water conservation.In 2024, the state of California passed new regulations requiring all residents to reduce their water usage. In Redding, that means reducing water usage both indoors and outdoors. During rainy, wet winters, Redding easily meets these new restrictions. However, as we move into the hot, dry summer months, our need for outdoor watering blows our water budget.Today, we speak with Brandon Bishop, Water Conservation Specialist for the City of Redding, about the new regulations and how we can work together to reduce water usage as a community. Brandon admits that the new state rules will be tough to meet in the summer, but is looking to provide everyone with some helpful tools to conserve, regardless of the season.We recognize that water conservation is a complex topic. Still, if there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that water is a vital resource, and it's never a good idea to waste it, even when there is plenty available. Fixing leaks and utilizing drip irrigation where possible can significantly reduce overall water usage.Learn more about Redding's Water Conservation >>Read the transcript here>>Contact the City of Redding Podcast Team Email us at podcast@cityofredding.org Connect with us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram Visit the City of Redding website Love the podcast?

California's water rules are changing—permanently. Starting January 1, 2025, new regulations from the State Water Resources Control Board will require major water suppliers to cut water delivery significantly by 2040. This isn't just about managing water during droughts anymore—this is about building drought resilience into everyday life. Water agencies across the state will now have to develop community-specific water budgets that account for residential, commercial, and landscape use. The measures include limiting outdoor watering, encouraging water-efficient appliances, and pushing Californians to rethink how we use every drop. And here's the kicker: failure to comply could cost agencies up to $10,000 a day in fines. So what does this mean for all of us? Are these changes a burden—or an opportunity to innovate? In episode 22 of What Matters Water TV + Podcast, we have brought together a panel of experts to explore just that: Chelsea Haines, Regulatory Director with the Association of California Water Agencies, offering a statewide perspective on this massive shift. Kelly Kopp, Professor and Extension Specialist at Utah State University, who's focused on water efficiency research. William Ringland, Public Affairs and Conservation Manager at East Valley Water District, where smaller agencies are stepping up to meet big expectations. Fiona Sanchez, Director of Water Resources at Irvine Ranch Water District, who's at the forefront of implementing large-scale water solutions. Together, we'll unpack the opportunities, the challenges, and the practical steps agencies and communities must take to get this right. The stakes are high, and only time will tell if these changes deliver a sustainable water future without creating financial strain on communities.

A bit of rare good news for Wellingtonians, they've escaped having the water restrictions ratcheted up on them this week. That decision was taken today, it's taken every week at the moment, and at the moment they're staying in level 2- for now. But the case against Wellington City Council as the bad guys is building fast. I would argue it's becoming more and more obvious that they have neglected to fix the pipes when they knew they should've. Remember how I told you the guys who fix the pipes asked for $10 million but only got $2.3 million from the council? Turns out the reason Wellington City Council said no to giving all the money was because they told Wellington Water they didn't think they could use all the money to do the job and fix the pipes. Except they could. Because the budget for fixing the pipes the previous year was $10 million, and they used it all. So Wellington City Council reduced the maintenance budget by 75 percent when they knew the pipes would leak- and there were water restrictions in the city every summer. On top of that, there's a guy on the Wellington Regional Council called Daran Ponter who's just thrown them to the wolves as well. Daran is a Labour man, so you would expect him to be friendly to a left leaning council. Nope, he's called them out for spending the money they should be spending on pipes on other things- “new town halls, or refurbished town halls, or bike lanes". Now, I reckon the case that's building here is that this council needs Government intervention. It needs a Crown Observer called in. Because if you don't know that you should spend money on making sure people get water to their houses before you spend money on cycleways, you shouldn't be running a council. Incidentally, the Local Government Minister Simeon Brown has gently threatened that in a letter to Wellington City Council- and I think he should follow through.
