And just to be sure that I am completely understood, let it be known that I do not agree with the regulations that California has imposed upon us. Frankly I find them arbitrary (using a two lane road as a boundary for fish stocking regulations) and over bearing (requiring property inspections in order to transfer species of fish that already exist in a given body of water).
That being said the rules are the rules.
Given that you are in the middle of the desert and that your system does not connect to any other body of water, I would guess that you could get a permit to stock the Tilapia (if you are stocking the allowed species).
IMHO these new regulations are crushing pond owners and fish suppliers.
