This Lake serves several states i.e., Nevada, Arizona, and another country, Mexico:

Lake Mead has declined to its lowest level since the reservoir was filled in the 1930s following the construction of Hoover Dam, marking a new milestone for the water-starved Colorado River in a downward spiral that shows no sign of letting up.

The reservoir near Las Vegas holds water for cities, farms and tribal lands in Arizona, Nevada, California and Mexico. Years of unrelenting drought and temperatures pushed higher by climate change are shrinking the flow into the lake, contributing to the large mismatch between the demands for water and the Colorado’s diminishing supply.(https://www.sltrib.com/resizer/CkwtXuBakssCpia2DRFDGNjFxVI=/1024x650/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-sltrib.s3.amazonaws.com/public/77BPMFRE3REFHFTWAVUQSCECIM.jpg)

Here we go again  ???:

'Dire situation': Silicon Valley cracks down on water use as California drought worsens. ... The move was championed by analysts and researchers who have pushed for more conservation efforts across California amid concerns that the state will fall deeper into a drought disaster through the hot, dry summer and autumn.

In this California area, REsidents are fighting the city to ban these weed farmers cuz they claiming that weed farming is using too much water. 

Reach further, dig deeper into the aquifer
