I have a couple of thoughts.States in the drought struck west will need to invest in desalinization facilities and use THAT water for people's consumption and industrial- people will only cut back on it if it costs more.  I briefly lived in Arizona in 1985.  It was unbelievable to me the lawns and golf courses in the desert!Desalinizing water can be expensive but the costs could be managed in a progressive manner with low prices for the the first few daily gallons of use and increasing the costs progressively when people use a lot more than needed for subsisting.Regulate the use of natural occuring water to farming use ONLY
