One of the facts that astonishes me is 100 years ago the many crooked politicians in Oklahoma all understood water was vital. The city of Oklahoma City started building lakes for drinking water. Right now the city owns a large area of land in SW OKC that they prohibit any construction. It will be a future lake when the current lakes can't keep up.
Right now most all the lakes are at flood stage or above and they are discharging water down the rivers to get to normal levels. We have plenty of water, but processing it all in the dead of summer is the challenge. The city has plans for more water treatment facilities to be built.
It is just astonishing that the forefathers understood the importance of water in Oklahoma, but California just can't figure it out. Without water, the land is useless.
