Every year when the water restrictions come about, my father and I have the same discussion. While rain fall may be down, there are plenty of times when our water reservoir lakes are full and spilling over. So, he has been saying for a while, "Why are we not making the lakes deeper?"
I will admit that I know absolutely nothing about water management. However, this just seems like a logical idea. The more water we can retain, the more water we will have in the future.
Does anybody have an educated opinion on why we have not done this?
