Lobby for Rainwater Capture in California

AB 275, the Rainwater Capture Act of 2011 makes it legal for all Californian’s to capture rainwater, thus decreasing stormwater runoff, increasing groundwater infiltration, and offsetting unnecessary potable water use for things like landscape watering. Wholly H2O, which helped craft the bill, considers this legislation a no brainer for California, a state whose water sources and their ecosystems are over taxed and under cared for.

Yet, there are bill opponents talking directly to the Governor and asking him to veto the bill. It would be great if as many people as possible contacted the Governor to request a signature. You can support AB 275, Rainwater Capture Act of 2011 by writing Gov Brown before October 8th.

Governor Jerry Brown
c/o State Capitol, Suite 1173
Sacramento, CA 95814

Phone: (916) 445-2841
Fax: (916) 558-3160
Or you can go to his website – www.gov.ca.gov – where AB 275 is listed as an issue in a drop-down menu.
