Water rationing announced in Marin County

     water officials in southern Marin county announced that beginning April 1,  cusrtomers of the district will have to cut back on consumption of potable water.  Eight water districts will notify customers of their requirements, with some asking for a 25% cutback.
    A general meeting of water officials highlighted efforts to inform the public of the severity of the drought as it currently stands.  reservoirs are at 50% capacity or less.
     Over 100 citizens were in attendance, many to  comment on current plans and future drought-related cutbacks.   In 1976-77, the district put a 37 gal./per person limit on customers.
     Let's hope the the storm door is open again.
