Los Angeles Dept of Water & Power will do nothing for the good of the environment (read: end pillaging water resources to the north) unless its sued. It'll fight endlessly for the 2% of water it "exports" from the Mono Basin.
Sue LADWP.
Again and again.
If the state water board won't hold LADWP to account for the agreements DWP continually violates, sue the LADWP, and force it to comply.

Unpredictable snowpack, dwindling water supplies, collapsing fish populations, and an expected update to the Bay-Delta plan make CA water management issues more urgent than ever before.
"And there are folks who just don't care about those things. And I like to tell them these are just messengers of worse things to come," as our lead scientist @jarosenfield told ABC-7 News.

Native fish populations, including Chinook Salmon, Central Valley Steelhead, and Green and White Sturgeon are declining at an alarming rate—meanwhile, state regulators have failed to act.
