Criticism of local water efforts questioned by columnist
Guest column by Roy Byrnes sparks dispute over San Juan water plans. The city’s groundwater recovery plant predates current council and aims to meet 70 percent of domestic needs, with a goal of 5 million gallons daily by summer. Congressman Ken Calvert praised local water development, while Byrnes is accused of fabricating claims about a 2002 water factory tied to Rancho Mission Viejo. A broader debate over water sources and rates continues.
