FALLS, ore. -- Wet weather in April has done
little to change the drought picture for farmers in
the upper Klamath Basin.
The
U.S. Bureau of Reclamation
tells the Herald and News newspaper that the ground
was so dry it soaked up the rains, so little got to
Upper Klamath Lake,
the main reservoir for the area's federal irrigation
project. The formal operations plan for the
Klamath Reclamation Project is coming out in the
first half of May, but the bureau says water is not
likely to start flowing until sometime after May
15th - a month and a half later than usual.
Drought and the demands of
protected fish have forced steep cutbacks in
irrigation on the project.
