Since Owen's Lake filled, it's smart to keep it full, it had become a toxic dust source dried so to miss it having flow implies enforcing the death of the most productive valley on the east side. Bishop was assumed to become a large destination city, the theft of water rights was encouraged by taking pot shots at farmers to help them sign, coercion was used. Restoring flow to maintain Owen's Lake can restart farming from Bishop to Lone Pine, to make the deal have LA recycle all sewage plant water as NLkTahoe has done since the 70s to not have algae blooms, do the math, save the lake by recycling LA wastewater. If algae are used to purify vs floccing chemicals 2nd step gains 30% of volume biodiesel/biocrude, from pilot/study for Gov.JanBrewer AZ, vetoed by Sen.McCain or it'd become a standard. Nice video, lived in MammothLks a while, cheers ♻️
@Trail_Trash Good to know, they still take too much water & need to fully recycle all water in sewage treatment plants as at NLkTahoe has since late 70s that volume re-routed to the lake. From the N.Pacific being too warm Siberian cold turns north dumps heat and moisture cools to ooze from AK to the Gulf as a cold groundhugging airmass 1200mi × 1500ft a wall-of-cold. Expect a repeat snow dump, when ocean air is drawn into the coast it hits the wall at the Sierra crest, so, since LA won't recycle it may fill anyway. If the mud crusts over the dust will be less a thought, yet, expect a repeat snow dump not a few years between them a caution, the flow can't change back until oceans cool 🍺
I saw a recent video that showed excess water being drained off toward the Ca city area near the 58 hwy, and last week I was traveling the 395-14 and saw water being drained off into the desert near Inyokern. It's bad enough they take the water but then to waste it into the desert is criminal.
Very interesting! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. I have often wondered where the aqueduct starts.
Excellent video. I am always fascinated in the many interesting parts of Eastern California.
What a lovely presentation
Thank you,great information. Happy Memorial Day 🙂💐❤🇺🇸
Cool video!

Owens lake has not filled, it's only inches deep in a small part of it's original bounds.

Asilomar ?
Sylmar, where the cascades are that flow into Van Norman Reservoir. You can see them from The 5 Freeway on the east side.
They need to get all their water from the pacific with desalinators like Israel does and shut off the aqueduct
need to stop all water going to the south it need to stay on the east side la sucks turn off all there water. city suck
Interesting grammar.
Sylmar is pronounced SILL-MAR, not 3 syllables SIL-A-MAR

So thats where all that trash comes from.
