Re: surface water diversion

This type of law is primarily of common law origin and has been developed over hundreds of years of case law. There are various provisions in the statutory laws of California that may be relevant, depending upon the exact locations and circumstances. Sorry, but you should have your problem reviewed by a lawyer.
