I assume it has to do with the reason that private owners of water don't buy and sell directly with one another hm Are water rights somehow codified as inalienable? That would be really dumb

California already under charges for the water it sells municipally. The last thing the state need is to take over the riparian rights of ag land, the big users, and get lobbied into undercharing them in a big ole tragedy-of-the-commons scenario.

yeah getting my head around it forgot that rights are allocated by amount rather than (eg) share of sustainable draw or similar and yeah civic underpricing is nuts god what a shit system I could absolutely do better
