A May storm aided crops and water supplies, while reservoir levels and future alfalfa and grain prospects indicate improving conditions despite late season starts.

Dam Across Navajo Lake Blasted Again
The Kane County Navajo Lake dike across the waterway was blown open again last week, creating a fifty foot breach that released about 5 500 acre feet into the East end sinks. The event, the third such incident, likely involved opponents of the dam who argued the lake’s irrigation water should feed springs and avoid the sinks. The breach occurred late Thursday night near the Cedar Long Valley road, just before its linking highways 89 and 91 over the mountains. The dike’s destruction lowers the lake, hindering fish raising for anglers in southern Utah, and rebuilding is delayed by road conditions with a water shortage to be addressed after repairs.
