“Realistically, if it doesn’t rain this winter, we’re going to continue to view a variety of private wells going dry and at some point we would arrive to the point of basically a mass exodus out of this area,” he says. “You could observe the economy of this area just decimated”(Source 2). “That includes deciding whether to operate precious water hauled from the local fire stations for the “bird baths.” Mrs Gallegos says everyone now has instead of showers, or flushing the toilet. “Sometimes,” she says, nodding towards her youngest child, “when she needs to go, I just take her outside”(Source2).

The process of groundwater extraction could apply supplementary tension on the San Andreas Fault.(Source 3). This quote explains that as well as that we should have legislation, therefore if they build too much wells they can intensify stress to the San Andreas Fault and cause an enormous natural disaster. Also, the well diggers are already having to arrange a large quantity of wells to each
