    IIRC, water is purchased and released from Canton Lake down the Canadian River to Lake Overholser. From there it is sent up a canal (runs by Wiley Post Airport) to Lake Hefner.

    also of note .. (not that it matters much this year with canton so low) is that they really need to wait to release water from canton until after it rains . ...

    if they released water now from canton it would lose 50% or so to the earth on the way to Hefner ... after a good rain or 2 they only lose 20%
