But, the inverse is the situation. The people came, the people moved to the cities, the people moved to the southwest, industry is flocking to the southwest and they need an infrastructure to support that. I think that over time, we're going to have to come to grips with the fact that we've got to better extend that water supply that we've developed, the water supply behind this dam through management and conservation practices because there isn't anymore water to develop and there aren't anymore dam sites to develop, but the people keep coming. So, the theoretical question of would congress allow us to build a dam here today, probably really turns into the real life question that congress and the administration and the states governments and the local governments all have to share in and that is how are we going to extend this water supply, maximize it and still provide an environmental benefit at the same time. John Wesley Powell predicted it would be the key to everything, key to the future of this section of the country.
Water is the lifeblood of the west.
Everywhere the west developed, it was adjacent to a water source. Whether it was well, whether it was a river, it's just, it's that simple. You can't have anymore people than you have water to support them.
