[QUOTE="Rmc, post: 1763917, member: 39072"] That is a bit extreme and not accurate description of the current situation. Electric generation is still going on at all locations you mentioned. Flaming Gorge is lower than normal because they have released far more water down stream then usual .Replace the water that the state of Utah stole from the area and ships to the populated wasatch front and never built the reservoirs as promised as part of the central Utah water project and you would have a total different situation. Look at historical records . Fluctuating lake levels and flows are a regular occurrence historically. In the 1980s they had water flowing down the main street in Salt Lake City. And the genius’s in government spent millions on a pump system to pump water from the great salt lake to the desert as flood prevention measures. But do to government efficiency by the time the pumps where built where only used a short time. It’s a great gimmick to compare the lake level today to what it was in the flooded years of the mid 1980’s Instead of a historical actual portrait . Take a look at the Great Salt Lake levels since the 1960s . Is it lower yes . But a more realistic picture . [/QUOTE]
