😒If the water belongs to the state? Next time that rains or snows and someone get a roof leak, they should sue the state for the damages. 🙌

Partially true, but misleading.
In 2012, Gary Harrington in Oregon was cited, convicted on nine misdemeanors, fined $1,500, and jailed 30 days.
He built three large illegal reservoirs (dams up to 15-20 feet high) collecting ~13 million gallons of rainwater/snowmelt runoff from his land, impounding water that fed a tributary/stream (public water under Oregon law since 1909/1925).
It was not simple rainwater collection (e.g., rain barrels from roof)—that’s legal in Oregon without permits for personal use.
The story often spreads as “jailed just for collecting rainwater on his property,” which exaggerates and misrepresents the facts.

California charges people annually for water usage even though they have a well, my fee $75+/-. Also, California are putting meters on wells. San Joaquin County told me the rain water did not belong to me, it belongs to California. I moved to another state, no problem.

So if rain water floods, who owns the water and you will pay clean up and damages. If the state owns it they need to pay to clean up.
