Lake Mead is one of the largest Resoivwar in The United States, and supplies water to more than 25 million people. As a result of many long term droughts throughout the Southwestern part of America, Lake Mead stands at just 28% of its total capacity. This has created an array of different problems for this entire region, and has even impacted the Hoover Dam's ability to operate its hydropower turbines.

Lake Mead's low water levels have caused states such as California and Arizona to cut back on their water consumption which has affected many different industries. As a result, the Federal Bureau of Reclamation has announced two different projects that intend to replenish Lake Mead's water supplies. These plans are focused on diverting water from the Flaming George Resoivwar into Lake Mead. While these plans aim to put an end to the ongoing water crisis, we have yet to see their true impact as they were announced in mid 2022. Therefore, can Lake Mead actually be saved, and can its decline actually be reversed?
