BlueTriton can keep using California water pipeline, judge rules
The US Forest Service likely overstepped its authority by ordering bottling company BlueTriton to remove its California water infrastructure, a federal judge ruled. Judge Jesus G. Bernal this week granted BlueTriton Brands’ motion for preliminary injunction, thereby allowing the company to keep using water infrastructure in the San Bernardino National Forest for the foreseeable future, according to an order filed in the US District Court for the Central District of California. The decision marks the latest win for BlueTriton, known for popular water brands Arrowhead and Ozarka, in its battle to maintain California water operations.
