Mono Lake Committee reported

Water that should be flowing to Mono Lake began leaving the Mono Basin and flowing instead toward Los Angeles on June 17 when the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power (DWP) began exporting stream diversions into the Los Angeles Aqueduct.

DWP started exports early this year, which is unusual; it plans to make certain it can export the maximum allowed volume of 16,000 acre-feet by the end of the runoff year (March 31, 2026).
