Somehow the Oklahoma politicians in the 1930s and 40s had the vision to start building man made water storage lakes for drinking water, and recreation. We have plenty of water storage, and the limits on our water is the processing ability. That of course can be fixed with more water processing plants, and more wastewater treatment plants.
Right now, for sure have too much, but it will drain down to the rivers to the Mississippi and out to the Gulf and to the oceans. In Oklahoma the lakes are just a temporary storage for the water. We process it, use it in houses and industry, and send it down the drain to be treated and discharged back into the same rivers we gathered it from, and send it south. I am sure billions of gallons evaporate from the lakes and just turn into rain to fall to the ground again.
Water is never "used up" it just get endlessly recycled.
