Decided to run my ebikes on solar



I know it's against the law in California to capture rainwater in a rain barrel on your own property.
The state owns the rain.

no, it is not. in fact the state encourages rainwater capture and use for irrigation and other non potable uses.

AB-1750 “rainwater capture act” expressly allows the collection of rainwater without a permit.
 
no, it is not.

I watched a documentary where a woman hiked along the water pipe from LA to the start of the pipeline.

It was in that documentary where it was mentioned.

Perhaps it was within the LA county borders, or before that “rainwater capture act” was enacted??
