“Water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink…”
— Samuel Taylor Coleridge, 1798, in “Rime of the Ancient Mariner”
The reality confronting millions of Californians as they cope with yet another lengthy episode in a seemingly endless series of droughts is that — like Coleridge’s mariner — this state has billions of acre-feet of water clearly visible every day in the form of the Pacific Ocean and its many bays and estuaries.

News coverage has shown pictures of empty reservoirs, dry wells and brown, arid landscapes across California. While there is some question of when it may subside, the reality is that we are facing a second straight year of record low rainfall and snowpacks and may face a decade or longer of serious drought conditions across California.
