How Limited are you Water Resources?
How dependable is your water supply?
What would you do if
the water did not come out when you turn on your facet? Do you take for granted
that fresh clean water will always be there when you need it? Have you
considered how you will respond to continuing increases in the fees you pay
for your water?
What will you do when there is no water available to you and
your family?
Are you aware of the water shortages and depleted aquifers
below?
On November 24, 1922 in Santa Fe, New Mexico the water in
the Colorado River was promised or allocated to seven states and each was
allotted a share of the river. The amount of water or river flow was divided up
based on a twenty year river flow study that had just been completed. Today
looking back we know that the twenty year study time period was the wettest
twenty in the past hundred years. Tree ring studies now tell us the past
hundred years was one of the wettest hundred year period in the past thousand
years. The river was millions of gallons over allocated the day they signed the
Compact.
The Ogallala is the largest aquifer in the United States. It
was charged or filled with water from the melting glaciers around ten thousand
years ago. The available water in this underground aquifer has been declining
since the first electric pumps were put to work. It is not a question of will
it be pumped dry, rather a matter of when it will no longer be capable of supplying
water to the land above.
Satellite studies now allow science to better understand how
much water is in the aquifers below ground. The recent study of the California Central
Valley aquifer shows large water losses. The Central Valley produces a large
amount and variety of foods. This food is consumed by all of America. Science
believes the aquifer below the Central Valley lost enough water to fill Lake
Mead during a short study period. Lake Mead is above Hoover Dam on the Colorado
River and the largest man made lake in America. As the water table falls in
California there is a well drilling free for all going on with large wealthy
farmers drilling deeper and deeper wells.
Whole towns have already lost the
municipal supply wells to thousands of people.
Droughts and mega droughts have brought cultures and
civilizations to their demises throughout history.
Do you want a secure water future? Do you understand aquifer
and surface water over allocation? Are you confident that you can go out and
make informed decisions in your quest for a reliable secure water future?
Water rights, both ground water and surface flowing water rights to put the water to your own personal beneficial use are available today.
