Letters to the Editor for Feb. 27
Great work! She lays out the reality of undocumented border crossers, which is far different from the lurid inventions of the shameless xenophobes who dominate the airwaves.
Kudos to the writer who floated the notion of AZ paying to build a desal plant in California where there are already 12 online, one approved as recently as 2022. This in exchange for California’s CAP water allotments which are considerable. The water paying public should at least see the cost/benefit breakdown of the various plans to maintain our current profligate use of water.
Sen. Wendy Rogers added “This is to make sure that students...understand the country in which they live and embrace the citizenship and the founding principles that we hold so dear.” The USGS found Arizona has 600 million acre feet of brackish water under the state at depths of less than 3,000 feet. That is close to what Arizona would use in 100 years! Brackish water is salt water that was left underground when the ocean that covered what is now Arizona millions of years ago receded. It costs much less to desalinate than sea water. San Antonio, Texas uses treated brackish water for drinking water.
