The water in Castaic and Pyramid Lakes isn't good enough?

I mean, honestly, Northern California has much more water storing capability, but Castaic and Pyramid are both near full.. why is the water from those lakes not being used for the water need in Southern California? Our Folsom Lake and Shasta Lake in Norcal and horribly low (17% and 36%) and we are experiencing drought conditions as well as new water use regulations, and it looks like there is no rain in the forseeable future, at least not until April according to the feds.. when are we going to use So Cal's water for So Cal?

Castaic and Pyramid are fed by the California Aquaduct system, which is why they're full year round. Lolz.

Have you seen Casitas recently!? It's low as f*ck, too!

Folsom and Shasta lake are not part of the southern california water supply chain your problem is all yours so shut the faucet off.

the aqueduct fills those lakes for us down here, thanks for the water. it is used for our green lawns and drinking. it just where the water is stored short-termed before we use it.
