Book excerpt: “Wonderfully written…Mr. Owen writes about water, but in these polarized times the lessons he shares spill into other arenas. The world of water rights and wrongs along the Colorado River offers hope for other problems.” —Wall Street Journal An eye-opening account of where our water comes from and where it all goes. The Colorado River is an essential resource for a surprisingly large part of the United States, and every gallon that flows down it is owned or claimed by someone. David Owen traces all that water from the Colorado’s headwaters to its parched terminus, once a verdant wetland but now a million-acre desert. He takes readers on an adventure downriver, along a labyrinth of waterways, reservoirs, power plants, farms, fracking sites, ghost towns, and RV parks, to the spot near the U.S.–Mexico border where the river runs dry. Water problems in the western United States can seem tantalizingly easy to solve: just turn off the fountains at the Bellagio, stop selling hay to China, ban golf, cut down the almond trees, and kill all the lawyers. But a closer look reveals a vast man-made ecosystem that is far more complex and more interesting than the headlines let on. The story Owen tells in Where the Water Goes is crucial to our future: how a patchwork of engineering marvels, byzantine legal agreements, aging infrastructure, and neighborly cooperation enables life to flourish in the desert—and the disastrous consequences we face when any part of this tenuous system fails.

Book Irrigation in Imperial Valley  California

Download or read book Irrigation in Imperial Valley California written by C. E. Tait and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation in Imperial Valley, California: Its Problems and Possibilities New River has its source at Volcano Lake and flows down the slope to the northwest across the boundary line through Imperial Valley and into Salton Sea, having a total fall from 24 feet above sea level at the source to - 287 feet at the bottom of the sink. Alamo River, formerly known as Salton River, runs first westward in Mexico, thence northward across the boundary line and through Im erial Valley to the Salton Sea. These two streams are the channe s by which any overflow of the Colorado toward the northwest enters the lowest ortion of Salton Sink. The olorado overflows its banks in Mexico annually and in recent years some of the water found its way into Salton Sink from natural causes, and once, through the work of man, it was unintentionally entirely diverted from its present channel into Salton Sink. Alamo River originally ran through Mesquit Lake by making a sha turn to the west at that point, but the channel was strarghtene by a ditch known as the Alamo cut-off, leaving the lake off its course. The lake has also been almost completely drained by another ditch. A few years a o the Alamo was larger than New River, but in recent floods most 0 the water in the Alamo passed over to New River through Beltran and Garza and Pink Mountain sloughs in Mexico, so that through Imperial Valley New River has been much the larger stream. The recent flood caused by the diversion of the Colorado into Salton Sink forming the sea is described in the latter part of this report, together with the cost] measures which restored the river to its former channel and whio will prevent any further 0 flow into New or Alamo rivers in the future.
