I already told you water should not be private.

Yep. Thank God I have my own well. Although that can be a curse in and of itself.

And yet my San Diego 80 foot deep well still pops out 360 gal/min. I have not bothered to test the other 3 each tapping into a completely different aquifer. I am getting ready to build a 12 foot high electric fence around it. What's really cool is that the main well has 2 bores and the older still has an 80 foot high fully functioning 1900's era windmill tied to it. Maybe in a few years I can start selling water and pay off the mortgage faster.

Turn off your sprinkler system.

You'll be OK.

No such thing as global warming, right?

Whether or not it's private, it costs money to build desal and run the plant.
