Improving conveyance efficiency |

Description |
The water that seeps out of canals typically contributes to shallow groundwater. It can be intercepted by nearby groundwater pumps or flow into unlined canals or rivers. Because seepage is not a consumptive water use, improving conveyance efficiency can increase agricultural productivity and income but does not significantly reduce depleted water that could be available to Great Salt Lake through water right change applications. |
