Will be interesting to see how lawmakers deal with having to build levies, lochs, and/or  dikes like New Orleans in order to protect all of the development they have allowed in areas like Kakaaako.

Another consideration is who is actually using the water. When the conservation warning went out in CA some years ago, it was found that the general population only used around 2% of CA's water, and the rest went mostly to ag/industry. Cutting 20% from the 2% of users was mostly useless.
