About this organization
Mission
C-WIN is a non-profit, tax exempt California Corporation that advocates for the just and environmentally sustainable use of California's water, including instream flows and groundwater reserves, through research, planning, public education, media outreach, and litigation.
About
Litigation concerning appropriate uses of California water: (a) Continued Monterey Plus Complaint: C-WIN maintains a lawsuit against the California Department of Water Resources Agency to protect taxpayer investments in the state water project and ensure that sufficient water is available for city/urban needs in the event of a drought (as state law mandates). (b) Continued Kern Water Bank Complaint: C-WIN also sustains a lawsuit to reinstitute a state-purchased water investment that had been sold to privately controlled interests who profit from water sales, to the detriment of California taxpayers/urban cities who lose access to those water resources during drought periods. (c) Delta Plan and its EIR: C-WIN sustains a lawsuit to halt approval and implementation of the Delta Plan because it does not meet the requirements of the California Delta Reform Act of 2009.
