The California State Water Resources Control Board on Friday sent a cease and desist letter to Nestlé, demanding the water bottling company stop “alleged unauthorized diversions and threatened unauthorized diversions from Strawberry Creek in San Bernardino County.”
The water Nestlé pulls from the San Bernardino National Forest, located in the Inland Empire region of Southern California, and is sold as the Arrowhead brand of bottled water, the Desert Sun reported. The Santa Ana River, where the water comes from, provides water for roughly 750,000 residents in the area, as well as wildlife.
