Water park sparks controversy in parched California

Dublin, California
ON a typical hard-hat tour of a major municipal construction project, city officials extol the venture's expansiveness and rave about how many citizens will benefit.

That is because Dublin is building a water park - in the middle of the worst drought in California's modern history.
