Environmental advocates rally for change to river flow as Spokane River runs dry for second consecutive year https://www.kxly.com/news/environmental-advocates-rally-for-change-to-river-flow-as-spokane-river-runs-dry-for-second/article_cada77c2-476a-460f-ba3d-7f251eacf5f9.html ~ The Riverkeeper argues that 500 CFS is no longer sufficient to sustain the river's losing reach. While the exact cause of the recurring dry stretch remains unknown, the organization points to the current flow regime as a contributing factor that needs immediate attention. ~ This is pure ignorance, or propaganda to benefit building developers. There's a very mathematical reason why the Spokane Aquifer is drying up. ~ AI Overview Over the past decade (roughly 2016 to 2026), thousands of total housing and multi-family units have been added across Spokane Valley, highlighted by large recent additions like the Spokane Housing Authority's 240-unit Orchard Vista project. Earlier baseline data from the Spokane Valley Housing Action Plan showed an average of about 345 new housing units built annually in the city, translating to over 3,500 units in the first half of the decade alone, with subsequent multi-family permits adding steady blocks of hundreds more units year-over-year through the county's recent construction booms. ~ The well has only so much to give. This ain't rocket science. On top of this they're trying to open data centers in Spokane county. The politicians and others involved don't care about the drought or river bed running dry. Follow the money, you'll locate the source of the corruption involved.
