SRBX GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS
CALIFORNIA’S

By Damon Conklin, SRBX Director of Government Affairs
A s if the COVID-19 epidemic, economic malaise, disrupted
schooling and wildfires weren’t enough, California now finds itself
heading for a drought... a big drought. In fact, the U.S. Drought Monitor

which could adversely impact construction across the state.
If past is prologue, we will likely see greater restrictions on potable
water usage on construction projects with harsher penalties; installation
of more water efficient appliances and water conserving landscaping
will likely be required by code and/or as a condition of project
approval; well drilling permits may significantly increase along with a
higher demand for contractors with C-57 Well Drilling licenses; and we
should expect to see significant state and federal investment in water-
specific construction projects being negotiated.
Gov. Newsom and the Legislature are enjoying a $20 billion state
budget surplus and if congress can pass President Biden’s infrastructure
plan (currently pegged at $111 billion for waterworks), there will
potentially be a cascade of tax dollars to fund water infrastructural
projects.
However, legislative leaders are avoiding dams as they are seen to be
too costly and controversial - opting to focus on major ground water
replenishment projects, including a $500 million proposal for erecting
new water tanks or hooking up to larger water systems; and a bill to
spend $785 million on repairing leaky canals and sunken roads (SB
559).
Some legislators are focusing their efforts not on water conservation,
but rather to prohibit any residential or commercial construction in either
