Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a measure by state Sen. Lois Wolk, D-Davis, to help failing public water systems provide services in disadvantaged communities throughout California. Wolk’s Senate Bill 552 enables the state to contract with third-party administrators with the expertise to help provide customers of these failing water systems with safe and affordable drinking water. “All Californians have a right to safe, clean, affordable and accessible water suitable for human consumption, cooking and sanitation,” Wolk said.
