Attached please find 7 PSA videos on Utah water issues like Utah's State Water Engineer is Anti-farmer and Pro-Federal Control.
If farmer saves water, then the State Engineer takes it away and gives it to the Water Cartel and Federal Government who own junior water rights.
If the Water Cartel saves water, the State Engineer lets them keep it, and expand their use to make more money. What kind of water policy is that?
The State Engineer won't update his 1980's water regulations to cut water and sewer impact in half for Home Builders, because the Water Cartel told him not to.
Utah leaks 15 Deer Creeks while we are told we need to spend billions for the Bear River Pipeline and the Lake Powell Pipeline putting water into system leaking up to 25%. What kind of a water policy is that?
Utah's water is over regulated to the point where the amount of water a bush uses (the amount a cabin uses) results in $3,000 in state water paperwork costs. What kind of a water policy is that?
Utah is a state where land receiving 120 inches of precipitation is declared "dry" by the water cartel under 10-8-15 or one city can reach into another city take building permits off recorded lots.
My name is Evan Johnson. I've been a Public School Teacher, Land Developer, Water Developer for 24 years, Farmer, Board Member on Irrigation Company, Board Member on a County Food Bank, and read 40,000 pages of water information. Water is a lot of fun. There is a lot of misinformation on water in Utah.
Thank you for your consideration,
Evan Johnson
