That plus the amount of energy to transport fuel through a pipeline is relatively small in relationship to the amount of energy in the fuel. I can't imagine the same applies for water. you would probably use more energy to transpot the water to hydroelectric dams then you could generate. So the energy to do this would probably make it cost prohibitive let alone the cost to build all the pipelines required.

They built the Hoover dam in 1931 I think it was, and created Lake Mead, which gives most of the South West, including Los Angeles, Las Vegas etc, it's water supply for 90% of their water. Yet, since 1999 (partly because of population explosions in the area, and partly cause of draughts) the water level in Lake Mead had DROPPED get this 130 FEET. And it's still dropping. And he had this water dept big wig woman talking about the problem and they were talking about how we have well over 600 MILES of the Alaskan oil pipeline, and THOUSANDS of miles of Natural gas lines running from Texas all over the US. So, they were saying "why don't we built water lines, to take water from where there is too much (like where you are, and all through the mid west) and pipe it over and into Lake Mead etc, to where there is a shortage of water?? Makes sense to me. Ppl say "well, that cost too much". But look at what the cost to this country will be when probably 20-50 MILLION ppl who rely on water (and electrical power cause of the huge turbines that run there) from Lake Mead and other lakes in that part of the country, are suddenly out of water, and they all move "back east". What a mess we'd have on our hands, and we'd better fix the problem while we can, and I think the idea of "diverting water from flooded area, to those in draught areas" makes perfect sense. Then, later, if Lake mead ever flooded, and the Midwest was in a draught, the water could just be reversed.

But, I do have a 12 day trip planned for Eagle Nest, NM in August, any suggestion are welcome as to water, flies, or technique. Jerry McKaughan, President CADDIS Fly Fishers P.O.
