"Federal officials are proposing to give Nestle a new five-year permit to bottle water on federal land in drought-ridden California.
The proposal comes after the Forest Service faced criticisms for allowing Nestle to take millions of gallons of water annually in the San Bernardino National Forest using a permit that should have expired in 1988, but the agency let the company keep bottling water under the permit.
Meanwhile, California’s in the midst of a years-long drought that scientists think is the worst in thousands of years."
