Can you tell me some of the history of water resources in California related to the current drought?
<|assistant|>
California's history of water resources has been greatly impacted by the current drought, as seen by the sharp decline in water levels in reservoirs and other water storage systems. Previous droughts in 1976-77 and 1987-92 have served as templates for how this current dry spell would affect the availability of water. In addition, efforts by the state, like water conservation campaigns and increased regulation of groundwater use, have been implemented in order to mitigate the drought's effect. Finally, some parts of the state have begun to look towards technological innovation, such as desalination plants and rainwater capture and storage, in an attempt to find a solution.
