Water polluted by northern California medical marijuana grows
Wildlife officials warn drought stricken streams in Lake Humboldt and Mendocino counties are being fouled by water hungry outdoor and backyard grows. Officials estimate about 30 000 plants per river system consume six gallons daily during the 150 day growing season and counties move to curb outdoor cultivation to protect watersheds and endangered species.
