Just look at the flows into Powell, nothing compared to last year. Please panic away.

And what is there can't be pumped correctly or some other panicky reason. Please add that to the hysteria.

Been curious about that. Is the snowpack still really high, or is a lot of it

Precipitation totals are only half the battle. The other being water usage.

Growing alfalfa and selling it to China has to stop.

If you want to truly save the GSL, stop using Bear River water for crops.

This is a fallacy.

Do tell. Here is one article that discusses Utah alfalfa going to China.

I edited my post to add the details I've been meaning to look up for a while.

Also, alfalfa exports are not a significant fraction

Residential use is a very small part of overall use. Agriculture and mainly hay

May 20, 11:02pm

By far the biggest factor is drought. Not population growth. Also this

May 20, 11:06pm

Well if drought is the biggest cause, doesn't it mean usage needs to be reduced

Acorn

Yes, we need to reduce usage. I'm making the argument that reducing residential

trueblue04

2022 SLT story says about 30% is exported. About 66% of that goes to China.

Parker Schnabel

30% is by value. Export by volume is 10%.

80% of the usable water in Utah goes to agriculture. (Reference linked below)

Seems like the Owens Lake and Owens River Valley would be a better comparison
