[5] All of these aspects of the problem prove that regulation is needed to manage the limited water resources in California. The best way to do so is through the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act. This act gives local agencies the power to regulate as well as make sure that both surface and groundwater are used responsibly so that water resources are not depleted ("Sustainable Groundwater Management"). The act helps to manage farmers and corporations so that one of California's most valuable resources is not wasted. While the act itself will not regulate the crops that can be grown, its regulation of groundwater and making sure the aquifers that wells draw water from will help prevent the thirstiest crops from depleting resources. It might change farmers' minds about what crops are the most important to grow especially if aquifers and wells are regulated to prevent groundwater depletion.
[6] Residents of the state of California can do their part by conserving water, but this is a small part of the issue compared to the water needed for agriculture and business. If nothing is done to regulate these, California's water will just go down the drain.
