Nestle ripping off millions of gallons of California water

Activist Post - Nestlé has been taking more than 60 million gallons of water per year from the San Bernardino National Forest, according to California regulators ... without any valid basis of right to the water.

A two-year investigation by the California State Water Resources Control Board revealed that Nestlé, which sells water under the Arrowhead brand, lacked the proper permits for the vast majority of the water taken.

The State Water Resources Control Board notified Nestlé last week that the investigation had concluded, and that the company doesn’t have proper rights to roughly three-quarters of the water it withdraws for bottling.
