How about report on how water authorities missed federal deadline these public employees need to be held accountable. The public who are getting fined and restrictions applied want an answer.

Las Vegas only uses 1.8% of the lake water. California is using up all the water. Why are we going to conserve water just to have California use up the water we save????

Greed of building to bring more folks in but yet we don't have enough water. Locals are pretty sure this is not going to work out..it's not working out very well now for residents who are not happy about this.

Every public School Waters their lawns on rainy days. They're so stupid every school also overwatered and water floods over the sidewalks and goes into the gutters and it flows like a waterfall into the sewer it's like a raging River I have plenty documentation for that.

The Strip gets 90% of its water from wells drawing from the 1, 000 ft deep natural aquifers - NOT from Lake Mead. Then, that recycled water goes back into Lake Mead.

I stayed in 6 different Las Vegas hotels during a 5 week stay in Las Vegas from late May 2022. I was astounded at the water wastage in all six hotels from leaking bathroom taps, toilets that constantly leaked water into the bowls, and in restaurants people being served huge glasses of water whether they asked for it or not, and then just getting up and leaving the full glasses untouched to be thrown away. It seems the only way you learn your lesson America is when you finally run out of what you have wasted.

How could all that water be used when the town was dead during covid. Sounds like the hanky panky that was lowering the water you should levels stopped and the true water usage came out

[rampar]

They should drain Lake Las Vegas and return water to the system.

Vegas may be a place that can not exist in the future. It is a place artificially built to gamble. We can gamble anywhere close to plenty of water we don’t have to go to a desert city with no water!

Start using solar powered dehumidifiers throughout the regions of the desert, cities and any recreational areas. These will collect millions of gallons of water vapor for a moderate investment. Day and night collection directly into the underground water system.

Doesn’t Lake Las Vegas get its water from the wash? I think it does serve a purpose doesn’t help clean the water before it goes into the lake. It’s fed by the sewage treatment plant right? What is the news always got BS
