SB 1139: Monterey Peninsula Water Management District: nonfunctional turf: noncompliance and enforcement.

The bill aims to amend the water code to provide the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District with the authority to enforce the prohibition of using district water for nonessential purposes during drought or water shortages. The district will be authorized to impose civil liability and penalties on individuals and entities that fail to comply with the prohibition. The district will also be responsible for enforcing the provisions, and the state water resources control board will be required to prescribe penalties for noncompliance.
