Longtime Inland Empire journalist and KVCR news contributor Cassie MacDuff and KVCR's Jessica Greenwell review some of the big Inland Empire news stories from the past week.
1. 1. The Devore Water Company was cited by the state for not having enough clean drinking water to serve its customers in case of an emergency in the tiny unincorporated community north of San Bernardino. Leaky pipes at a nearby school are being blamed for the contamination. But now the water company has a plan it says will fix the problem.
2. In other water news, the state has approved grants totaling close to 270 million dollars for a giant water recycling project planned by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency for the Chino Basin.
3. Neighbors of a 2-million square-foot warehouse proposed for Live Oak Canyon in Yucaipa are mounting a petition drive opposing it, saying a warehouse would spoil the rural character of the tranquil canyon.
