Water is being diverted from the Weber drainage to the Provo to maintain Jordanelle and Deer Creek. Provo provides culinary water for SLC so Deer Creek and Jordanelle will be maintained at current levels as long as possible. Hence, Rockport and Echo, which are primarily irrigation, will be continued to be drawn down to the conservation pool. They are both already at levels that you usually don't see till middle of August. Water is becoming scarce folks. That is also why you are seeing an increase in the power squadron at both Deer Creek and Jordanelle, they can't launch anywhere else and it is going to get worse !!!
