The state said Thursday it will meet 100% of requested supplies for 29 water agencies that serve 27 million residents, the highest allocation since 2006. The announcement comes after several years of extreme drought had triggered sharp reductions in supplies, forcing cities to impose restrictions on household taps and farms to cut production.
The state will also deliver an additional 5% of supplies to help recharge groundwater that was badly overdrawn during the drought.
