"The 100-year war over water rights has been rejoined in California's Sierra Mountains with the powerful and often-despised water agency of Los Angeles going to battle against a small community over a trout bypass.
The question of who owns the rights to California's truest source of wealth and power has generated regional disputes for more than a century, collectively known as the California Water Wars. The conflict between the dry megalopolis of Los Angeles and the water-rich communities in the Sierra mountains has inspired historical books, novels, and films like Roman Polanski's Chinatown."
