Nestle can’t steal water from San Bernardino National Forest anymore

State orders Arrowhead water brand to stop taking water from San Bernardino National Forest

BlueTriton Brands will have to significantly curtail the amount of water it takes out of San Bernardino National Forest to sell as bottled water under the Arrowhead brand, according to a cease and desist order unanimously approved by the State Water Board on Tuesday.

The decision comes nearly a decade after activists first began questioning whether BlueTriton Brands — formerly known as Nestlé Waters North America — holds valid rights to the water it has diverted from San Bernardino National Forest for the past century.
