I solved the mystery of why the State wants more water in the GSL:
At current levels, Antelope Island is not an island it currently is just a peninsula.
Well, Antelope Island holds the States most expensive Deer.
As a peninsula, the States Deer can now escape and not drive auction tags up to unbelievable amounts.
No water=no island=possibly escaping Deer=low auction amount.
Nobody pays $300,000 to shoot a forky….yet.
I solved it!

This is what you said quoted directly from your post: "No lake, no lake effect, drinking water snowfall decreased by half into the cottonwood canyons."

That was NOT me. You're quoting Gone Forever. There will be impacts - to what level, I don't know, but there are / will be.
