There may be a way to keep the water flowing through the Inyo County Long-Term Water Agreement, even though the land in question is in Mono County.

Mono County ranchers are also Inyo County ranchers, and Inyo County ranchers are granted protections by the Long-Term Water Agreement against negative impacts like having to reduce herd size because there’s not enough water.
