[quote=Anonymous]I'm guessing that SLC and environs will at some point enforce mandatory water restrictions so some of the mountain runoff can replenish the lake. The idea of piping ocean water 600 miles from the Pacific over the Sierras and across the Great Basin is stuff of science fiction. Even if it's done, it would be astronomically expensive and take decades; it appears that Utah doesn't have decades. A big problem with the West is that it's been populated by many people who came from somewhere else (e.g., East Coast, Midwest) where water was relatively more plentiful. Climate change aside -- there's little understanding of how to properly live, care for, and husband lands in which water is naturally less plentiful.[/quote]
