    So, basically, not a meaningful amount of water at all. Credit to the story authors for taking the time to frame what 13MM gallons actually works out to.

      Odd to hide behind an LLC (LLCs) then.

        Real estate is almost always "hidden" behind an LLC or REIT, as recommended as common practice by CPAs and attorneys.

        It would be odder if it were directly in Google's business name.
