Southern California golf courses are being told to cut water use under new drought rules. Managers say they plan to let some grass turn brown.
Tribes and environmentalists are demanding California revise a key water plan, saying the Delta’s ecological crisis is tied to the history of racism.“We have to look on a case-by-case basis,” said Delon Kwan, the DWP’s assistant director of water resources. “Some of them have reduced water usage over the last several years. So it’s not an across-the-board target that they have to achieve.”
Anne Huston, who lives in L.A., said she thinks it’s time to get rid of golf courses because “they waste space and water.” “It feels obvious to me that in this climate crisis we don’t have the luxury of wasted space and heavy water consuming green grass for only the rich to walk on,” she said.Large portions of Southern California are being told to water outdoors just one day a week. And a total watering ban could be imposed by fall.
