Well folks,
About 300,000 gallons of water per second are pouring through the jet valves at the base of the Glen Canyon Dam in order to redo the streambed and riverside characteristics of the Colorado River between Glen Canyon Dam and the Hoover Dam. The level of Lake Mead behind Hoover Dam will see a rise of about four feet at the end of the flush. Just a little more than a month ago, the media were screaming about the low levels of water in Lake Mead. Under the guise of reconfiguring the riverside and streambed, The Feds are recharging Lake Mead. Funny how the media and "indie" journalists are so woefully clueless about the greater picture.
Here's a pic of whats happening:
