THE problem is water storage and infrastructure mismanagement that stems from a fucked up state government and there are TONS and GOBS and REAMS of studies and papers to prove this.

Water rights is THE problem. You can't talk about water conservation without first adressing water/land rights.
Water rights reform means disenfranchising land owners and reappropriating billions in wealth of purchased, and passed down, water rights.
After that, conservation can be effectively tackled.
Banks, corporations & farmers lobby to fight water right reform to avoid loss of powers & wealth, then blame government for failed water conservation.
