Vegas water plan cut in half

[Rev. Coyote]

I've been to Vegas once (boring), and was shocked at how they waste water with fountains, etc. I'd been hiking with a friend at the Grand Hole, and we stayed a night in Lost Wages before an early a.m. flight.

Thought the following article might be of interest to you guys.

Vegas Plan To Pump Water from Rural Nevada Approved on Smaller Scale

I was under the impression that much of the water in the fountains was recycled waste water from the Hotel or Casino. I am not fond of the idea of giving water to Vegas at all but I do think they do a fairly decent job of H20 conservation compared to other cities. Personally Vegas holds no excitement to me, though in college days I did have some pretty good times there.

If so, that's pretty smart. Maybe they could use mineral oil...
