Feds Call On States To Cut Water Consumption As The Colorado River Basin Drought Worsens

LAKE MEAD NATIONAL RECREATION AREA, NEVADA - AUGUST 19: A sign showing where Lake Mead water levels were in 2002 is posted near the Lake Mead Marina on August 19, 2022 in Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada. The federal government announced plans to cut water allocations from the Colorado River Basin to Arizona and Nevada for the second year in a row and is asking residents to cut water consumption as the drought worsens. Water levels at Lake Mead stand at 27 percent of capacity, its lowest level since being filled in the 1930s following the construction of the Hoover Dam. The lake's water levels have fallen an estimated 175 feet since 2000. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
