Lake Hefner at record low water levels, when will city buy Canton water?

[BoulderSooner]

These plans may be what the city is talking about when Ragan says the city will spend approx $500 million in the next 5 years on water. But the city's water demands will become increasingly taxing to the environment, as Lake Atoka is lower than us elevation wise and importing water from the SE part of the state will require massive pumping and environmental disruption. It may be wiser to increase conservation and raise water rates in the long run.

your definition of "massive" i think would be different then most ... and the environmental disruption is way overstated
