UCP plans to open up another 300,000 acres of irrigation in a watershed that has been overallocated for nearly 30 years. 1.2 million litres of water is an acre foot - multiply that by 300,000. Empty reservoirs, towns without water - because the reservoirs were drained to grow crops for feedlots. Oh ya, bring on another 300,000 acres of irrigation and the water will magically appear.
