The water rates are so high in Armona, CA because in a survey that was done, the people administering the questions, included the million dollar ranchers causing the low income community to pay $150.00 - $350.00 a month for their water.
We have asked the CA Health Department to survey again the community, but excluding the ranchers please. The CA health dept. agreed however nothing has been done since then.
Meanwhile the Armona water board shuts off water and leaving families without water. The water board also charges people for water with broken or malfunctioning water meters, and does not charge all families the same. A family of two pays the same or more for water as a family of five or six. For some families the water bill is higher than their rent!
I have searched for laws that govern the water boards and have yet to find them. Unfortunately the water board is not fair and has a heart of bronz! They also keep digging water holes, and needless to say the water is not healthy to drink let alone wash your body, cook, and no one seem to be concerned about this issue.
The community on December 2012 barely got an interpreter and the community could not understand what was going on. Some board members have been there for 10-15 years and have not progressed very much until these advocates came into the community and assist the community.
It is difficult to justify paying high water rates let alone for paying for dirty water!
Please help me to help the community
Thank you,

it depends on the current humidity, if the humidity is high the water will have trouble evaporating because it has no where to go, temperature and atmospheric pressure also play some part.

Would transpiration in cacti be high or low?
Low, so that there would be less moisture lost. Because of the fact that there is not an abundance of water in the desert environment, Cacti require low transpiration. They do this by having smaller amounts of stomata. I would double check on that using other resources, but it is a fairly simple concept. Cacti need to hold in more water than other plants so they have lower transpiration rates. :)

What is the relationship between interest rate and labor supply?
There is not a direct link but high interest rates are associated with expectations of high rates of inflation. High inflation may be associated with high wage rises and so lower employment rates. Low employment rates would suggest excess labour supply. So, from one end of that chain to the other: high interest rates are associated with high labour supply.

How relatively high interest rates affect currency values?
What is important is not high interest rates but high real interest rates: that is, interest rates adjusted for inflation.If a currency has high real interest rates, foreign investors will want to buy into that currency. The increased demand will push up the price of that currency relative to other currencies and so its exchange rate will "improve".
