It's been three months since Gov. Jerry Brown ordered California communities to slash their water use by as much as 36 percent. Some cities, including Eureka and Arcata, have successfully appealed those mandatory reductions. The city of Riverside, east of Los Angeles, was ordered to cut its water use by 28 percent. But the city says that's unfair and has threatened to sue, saying it's already done its part to conserve water.
