Agri sales generate taxes, so do LFS stores so im sure theyll get a commerical rate. Residential water rates will prob be based on property taxes, they more you pay the more water you get. Cant have BH or the west side turn brown (lawns that is). Its always about the $.

I don't think you understood. LFS stands for local fish store, she was directing the question towards local fish stores not hobbiest...
Ohh your so right. I thought LFS meant Liquid Feed Specimen. :frusty:

IIRC the original title did not mention LFS. I also have everything against vaginas. In the poker game of life vaginas are the Fckin rake!

It's been said that it takes one gallon of water to produce one almond. One almond!

"How would the water restrictions affect the LFS"?

It shouldn't affect them at all but it will affect you the consumer buying RO or saltwater from them. Expect the prices for rodi/saltwater to go up.

But that would be because their price went up. Which has an affect

Yeah, makes me glad I don't eat meat... at least I don't have to worry about that cost going up. :D

Yeah not getting a glass of water at restaurants won't solve jack. Limiting oil/gas industry from fracking (which we don't need if you looked at oil supplies/stock prices lately) which wastes billions of gallons of water which gets used on our food is one solution for sure imho.

I got no beef with almonds. Cali if the perfect climate. Alfalfa, rice, tomatoes, lettuce etc., on the other hand, can be grown in areas with plenty of water. Most of the alfalfa as pointed out by lurking goes to China. And having lawns in the desert is nuts. But I'm biased since my business is growing and selling native/drought tolerant plants.

Do you guys also do landscape work or just sell the plants?

I think a big chunk of water is wasted on the thousand of miles of old water main. They leak constantly underground. The only time DWP fixes them is when the entire line breaks.
