The US Forest Service and water bottling company BlueTriton [Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water] must fight their California water permit battle in a court closer to the case’s origin, a federal judge ruled. Judge John D. Bates transferred BlueTriton Brands Inc.’s bid to reinstate its special use permit related to San Bernardino National Forest water diversions to the US District Court for the Central District of California, according to an order filed in US District Court for the District of Columbia.
