California is entering a new phase of water conservation by requiring hundreds of cities and other urban suppliers serving 95% of residents to meet new mandates by 2040. Suppliers serving roughly a third of Californians won't need to cut water use to meet the requirements. Coastal California is expected to escape relatively unscathed, while inland communities will face far steeper conservation requirements.
