In a related development, California officials announced earlier this month that the state is on track to draw just 3.76 million acre-feet of Colorado River water in 2025—the state’s lowest draw from Lake Mead since 1949, despite significant population growth and agricultural demands. State leaders attribute this to decades of investment in urban water efficiency, farmland fallowing, canal lining, wastewater recycling, and the adoption of drip irrigation.

3.76 million acre-feet of water is about equal to a football playing field covered with water 700 miles high.
