Calif. Water Conservation Declines As State Considers Revising Mandates

California water conservation continued to drop in February and the state narrowly missed the 25 percent mandatory goal ordered by Governor Jerry Brown last year.  Now, as Capital Public Radio's Ben Bradford reports, the state Water Board is considering how to change the conservation mandate, after recent rain.
