Not too long ago they replaced the impellers with new ones to deal with lower water pressure. Friend was looking at the pics and didn't realize the footings for the towers were dry & that hasn't happened since the dam was filling up. In Lake Mead Vegas had clandestine drilled a straw to get water. It went dry and they drilled a second further back that went dry. Now the third ones drying up. There's areas in NLV where the sidewalks are heaving up two or three feet. A couple days ago TV news said Hoover dam was only being used to buffer the grid.Is anybody concerned that at some point there won't be enough water to turn the turbine (generator) at the dam?
Dummies are building big storm drains to keep the strip from flooding during the monsoons. Why no retention basins to keep the rainwater to use?
Didn't think that one through did they?
