Comments about ‘Eastern Nevada groundwater study meetings set’

They are drilling and pumping on there land. Have you heard of state's rights? Las Vagas needs the water more than a rattlesnake infested desert. They are willing to pay more.

I don't think there is a lot of water in Snake Valley, I have friends that own a ranch there and their well dried up a couple of summers ago. 3/4 of the water flows down into the Utah side anyways. If you've never been to Great Basin National Park you should go sometime. It's a beautiful mountain range will really nice alpine lakes and hiking areas.

You are making the same mistake that has plagued water policy in the West since the beginning: THE WATER SUPPLY IS NOT UNLIMITED. It is time that this obvious fact is recognized and we limit growht, rather than allowing limitless growth that cannot be sustained once the aquifers are permanantly depleted.

If they are having to pump 80 F water from 400 feet in Delta, what is this going to do there? There has to be some water monitoring around the site Nevada is planning to tap. If they can remove the water without causing Utah's wells to dry up or go deeper, fine. If not, they need to decrease the flow. Sounds simple, as long as both sides are too stubborn.
