A California city that was previously among the most reliant on Colorado River water has dramatically transformed its water situation and may now be able to sell water to other states facing cuts from the diminishing river.
San Diego has shifted from being heavily dependent on the Colorado River to potentially having surplus water available for sale to states experiencing reductions in their water allocations from the shrinking waterway.
The transformation represents a significant change for a city that once relied heavily on the Colorado River system for its water needs, as the river continues to face declining levels that have forced supply reductions across the region.
