Although it likely would take years for Lake Mead to reach the grim milestone, officials are sounding alarms. Last summer, a water shortage forced fewer releases from the reservoir, which produces power at the Hoover Dam and provides drinking water to Nevada, California and Arizona, along with portions of Mexico...
If only Nevada, California, and Arizona (especially California) did a better job with water management.
As for Mexico, I'd be curious to know how much they get and what they pay to get it.
Arizona pays the most, California the least. Adding insult to injury to Arizonans, their shitbag lawmakers fixed it so Saudis can grow vast amounts of alfalfa on Saudi owned Arizona lands with free water from the Colorado River.
