So they purchased land with a pond built without appropriate local permits - therefore inherited an illegally constructed pond? Am I missing something? Didn't this guy speak at a PB Conference a while back?
TJ, that's what I'm getting, too.
It looks like they bought land with a pond that had been illegally constructed in the 70's as forbidden by the 1925 law. The local water use commission didn't care until the new owners applied for pot growing permits that specify where they'll get the irrigation water.
