Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Environmental groups, such as the Mono Lake Committee, opposed the city of Los Angeles in their efforts to divert water from the lake, in order to supply the city with water. The battle went on for many years, with the environmental groups ultimately achieving a victory when a settlement was reached in 1994 that mandated a minimum level of water to be kept in the lake.
