  • Clell Pete, 66, a member of the Goshute Tribe, is measuring the water table at an abandoned water hole near Eight Mile, in the Goshute Reservation of Deep Creek Valley, on the Nevada-Utah border, USA. Clell began measuring it once a week since November 2012, in order to document the development of the water table. As of March 2013, the water table is at 65,11 meters and has only varied by a few centimetres since November 2012. Once the projected water pipeline of South Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) will be built and operated from nearby Spring Valley, the Goshute tribe will be able to measure the acquifers. A considerable drop would also prove the Goshute's assumption is correct, and that in fact the aquifers of Spring Valley and Deep Creek Valley are interconnected: a water withdrawal from Spring Valley would also affect the water supply for nearby Deep Creek Valley, and for the Goshute Reservation.
