A water district in California is threatening to cut service to a business on the Morongo Reservation.

The Morongo Band of Mission Indians entered into a partnership with Nestle Waters North America for a $26 million water bottling plant on the reservation. The Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water is produced there.

The Cabazon Water District said it has provided service to the plant since 2001. General manager Calvin Louie said there's a dispute over fees and back payments.
