A bill making its way through the legislature would officially put a stop to new permits for groundwater withdrawals, which have long been criticized by activists for using up natural resources.The legislation specifically dictates"any use of water for the commercial production of bottled water is deemed to be detrimental to the public welfare and the public interest."The bill, which passed the Senate by a 28-20 vote, moves on to the House.

Bottled water companies aren't the only ones using groundwater, the statement said, and companies follow"all government mandates" when conditions require it to reduce water usage."The proponents of anti-bottled water efforts such as this one, use emotionally charged arguments that are not based on facts or sound science," it read.
