Severe Drought Afflicts Lake Mead, the Largest Reservoir in the United States

epaselect epa04329460 A picture made available on 24 July 2014 shows a severe drought afflicting the American Southwest has left parched earth beneath boat slips at the now-closed Echo Bay Marina on the shores of Lake Mead, which is at its lowest level since it was filled in 1937, in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada, USA, 23 July 2014. Formed after construction of the Hoover Dam, Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the United States. Yet it is currently at just 39 percent capacity, with water levels at 1082 feet (330 meters), down from a high of 1225 feet (373 meters) in 1983. EPA/JIM LO SCALZO
