В Логане обсуждают проект переброски воды из канала Little Logan River для снабжения жителей

The Little Logan River splits from the Logan River at River Hollow Park. A major canal project proposed in Logan would divert water from First Dam to flow to residents in Logan, North Logan, and Hyde Park. Proponents of the project say that the current system isn’t efficient enough in getting water to those towns. Critics are worried that diverting this water would diminish the Little Logan River, and that it would be better to let the water flow on to the Bear River and ultimately the Great Salt Lake. Joining us today are project proponents: Gordon Colson, president of Crockett Avenue Irrigation Company, and Nathan Daugs, manager of the Cache Water District.
