Walker River Basin

An exhaustive hydro-geologic model of the Walker River Basin from Mason Valley downstream to Walker Lake (Figure 1) concludes Walker Lake (Figure 2) cannot be saved by the simple addition of water used by agriculture, and furthermore predicts negative effects on domestic wells if irrigation is terminated. A more acceptable solution to save Walker Lake has been proposed (Figure 3) and additional studies are in process.
