What amazes me is . How does Rio Tinto & BH Billiton get permission to extract water from the Colorado for their Resolution project at Superior.

They will require up to 20,000 acre feet of water, which is equal to 6.5+ billion gallons yearly. Extremely more than the 3 million gallons they can contribute to the supply from pumping out the under ground seepage. When the river's water diverted via canals. Are already utilized so extensively for farming downstream. The river with all it's tributaries no longer reaches the ocean.

That'l be the next big thing. Diverting the water from Mess creek to the VD project. And you won't believe the numbers it can be done for.
