    The Governor finished signing or vetoing all the bills on his desk by the September 30th deadline. In all, he signed 1,040 bills into law and vetoed 120. This week, Darcy and Darcy start this episode off by thanking a faithful listener for writing-in with critical, but-right-on-the-money comments and then welcomed back Assembly Ag Committee Chair Esmeralda Soria to share her thoughts on how the legislative session ended. She discussed some key legislation she was able to get over the finish line as well as some that fell short.

  • Water’s Movers & Shakers with Meena Westford, San Diego County Water Authority
    2026/06/17
    California’s water challenges are getting tougher; they are not just complicated, but more complex. If your water agency is going “with the flow,” you are most likely headed for very turbulent water ahead. Even Darcy V’s small community water system is embarking on its first metered water rate study. They know they can’t continue doing business the way they always have and expect different outcomes. The reality is that today’s water challenges require innovative solutions, courage, and relationships—not just thinking outside the box, but literally blowing the box up. This week’s guest, Meena Westford, Director of Imported Water for the San Diego County Water Authority (The Authority) shares the inside scoop on new water transfer agreements with other Metropolitan Member Agencies, a groundbreaking Memorandum of Understanding that will allow interstate water transfers, and how customer messaging matters now more than ever. These new-ways-of-doing-business deals didn’t happen overnight; timing is everything. The right people are in the right places – smart, seasoned, and thinking differently to solve today’s problems without yesterday’s baggage; Meena is one of those people. Darcy & Darcy discuss litigation history, the Colorado River, and why these issues matter to all Californians, as well as those who benefit from what California produces. Listen in! Let us know what you’re thinking! You can provide comments, suggestions, questions, or recommendations at https://www.ecwaterpac.com/podcast/. Thanks for tuning in!
