It appears to me there is an ever increasing trend to control the use of water by the various governing boards. We now have a water board in the county where my property is to control the pumping of water wells. I think this may have been brought on by some water companies buying a piece of property, drilling a well and pumping too much water. However, this affects all property owners in that one will have to get a permit to drill a well and then a meter to make sure you don't pump more than allowed or pay extra. I'm not sure of all the details but I do know voters did approve this board. My point is this. We all know that water and the use there of is going to be a major issue before us.
