Bakersfield City reports saving more water per month than Newsom’s order

The City of Bakersfield and Cal Water put water restrictions in place a few months ago to curb the use of water for irrigation and officials say it’s making a difference in helping reduce the impact of the drought here in California. This is along the lines of Governor Gavin Newsom’s order to cut down water consumption by 15% statewide and the city said over the past couple months, they have already reduced consumption by 16% on average per month.
