New state water conservation rules go easy on Sacramento but small cities nearby feel the pinch
Briefly

Under new targets, many urban water districts including Sacramento are under little to no obligation to conserve while smaller ones nearby are required to cut as much as 30% in a few years.
Stark differences in conservation requirements are on display in the Sacramento region, major urban districts face minimal cuts while far smaller, more rural communities nearby face significant reduction targets.
California American Water Co. in Sacramento and Placer counties is facing zero cuts, reflecting the stark contrasts in conservation obligations among various water providers in the region.
