Any time more water is removed from a lake than comes in, the lake level will fall - duhh, goes without saying. What I'd like to know is where, exactly, the water being pumped from U.L. is being used. I cross both the Jordan River and the "overflow" canal out by the airport several times every week and it seems like there's a lot of water still flowing out the "overflow" . I've looked closely at Google Earth searching for diversion structures and irrigated areas north of I 80 and don't really see much. If much Jordan River water is going into the Great Salt Lake, I wanna scream like a mashed cat about it. Can anyone on this board shed some light on this?
