w 23-1 -c Mr. Wa. Eeinbardt: Xocr letter October 12 th, regarding water with­drawals from the underground channels I had reference to the total withdrawals and not merely the amount used by the Water Company. At­tached is copy of withdrawals by years, compiled by the State aigineerU office. He estimates the total recharge to the southern part of Las Vegas Valley to be 30,000 acre-feet annually, and when it was found that the with­drawals exceeded this figure in 1946, it was thought that there was cause for alarm, especially if the with­drawals continued to Increase in proportion* However, the 194? figures indicate a slight de­crease, although still in excess of the estimated re­charge rate.
