For 6 years, the SNWA, Las Vegas, the Bureau of Reclamation & NV have been offered a FREE confidential disclosure of a new non-tributary fresh water SOURCE that can be developed to be deliver WITHOUT POWER a MILLION ACRE FEET EACH YEAR for storage/accumulation in Lake Mead. Lake Mead holds 28.5 MILLION ACRE FEET and is only half full. When full, Lake Mead generates 2000 megawatts of RENEWABLE ENERGY. CA could pay for development of the Source which will not damage the environment or the water rights of anyone, anywhere.

There is usually a solution to any problem ...

A million acre feet each year from a totally new NON-TRIBUTARY Source could be accumulated in Lake Mead to keep Lake Mead reasonably FULL ! Accumulation would be possible because this new water has never been in the Colorado River before ... it is NON-TRIBUTARY water.

Development of the new Source will not damage the environment or the water rights of anyone, anywhere.

When FULL, Lake Mead generates 2000 megawatts of RENEWABLE ENERGY each year and the facility is already built and paid for by the American people.

The Bureau of Reclamation, the Southern Nevada Water Authority, Nevada and California have all been offered a complete confidential disclosure of the Source.

Problem is ... no way to receive such a disclosure !

Lake Mead is easy to find on the map.

With a new NON-TRIBUTARY fresh water Source of a million acre feet EACH YEAR, Lake Mead could be kept reasonably FULL and generating 2000 megawatts of RENEWABLE ENERGY from a structure that has already been bought and paid for by the American people. Development of the new Source will not damage the environment or the water rights of anyone, anywhere. With cooperation, the Source can be developed so that NO POWER is required for delivery. waterrdw@yahoo.com WaterSource/WaterBank Retired Water Rights Analyst

Nevada,

A new fresh water Source and associated infrastructure will provide the greatest returns in achieving economic recovery, tremendous job growth, greater efficiency and farm productivity.

A truly new NON-TRIBUTARY Source that can be developed to provide Nevada a million acre feet each year has been offered to the Southern Nevada Water Authority & the Bureau of Reclamation and other water agencies for verification and investigation.

Development of the Source will not damage the environment or the water rights of others.
Adequate water is needed to provide a more stable base of employment and sustainable benefits.

Water not only helps jump-start and sustain
the economy, but also leads to improvements in efficiency and better utilization of vital infrastructure.

Investments in a million acre feet of renewable fresh water each year will bolster the basic construction industry as well as technology and manufacturing industries where the use of equipment that supports these needs drives a much wider base of the economy.
In the long-run it's critical that Nevada gain competitive advantages that are part of the solution to repay the massive debt we are
incurring.

One option for part of the new water would be to let it accumulate in Lake Mead to keep Lake Mead reasonably full ( 28.5 million acre
feet) and generating 2000 megawatts of renewable energy every year.

All NV wants is jobs and $$$ ... OK

For Nevada, a new fresh water Source and associated infrastructure will provide the greatest returns in achieving economic recovery,
tremendous job growth, greater efficiency and farm productivity.
