When will the pice of water go up???

[Scott Harness]

a few years ago I kept getting investment reports on companies buying up water rights. I think they gave up the idea though,because people were rioting and desalination got cheaper. Lake Powell is going dry fast, too many people moving to the southwest. Too many people period

Lake Powell is up 60' this year We had a great winter on the wasatch front.

We'll see how fast everyone downstream lowers it

[Scott Harness]

Great news! I heard it will be dry by 2012, same for another lake in that area(can't remember name)It might be doom and gloomers just talking. I HOPE

[Scott Harness]

It must have been really low to gain 60' That is feet correct?

[taylorRichie]

Yes that's correct... It was extremely low...

But it's the highest it's been in many many years... (not sure the exact year, but I think, don't quote me) since the early 80s.

They were saying last year it'd take 11 good winters to get it back up to capacity... I think they've adjusted that to something like 7 after this last winter.

Lake Mead is another lake that California and the South West depends on... and It's up this year as well.
