Superior Court Judge Victoria Cheney ruled on Friday to uphold a regional plan to require cities and business groups to adhere to new, cleaner standards for run-off. The case pitted California’s regional water boards against cities like Arcadia and Monrovia, the County of Los Angeles, and the Building Industry Association of California, who said that the new permit did not take into account the economic impact of the new regulations. Experts Anjali Jaiswal, Senior Project Attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, and Ken Farfsing, City Manager for Signal Hill join Guest Host Jon Beaupre to discuss the ruling and its ramifications.
