Summary[edit]

Description
English: Lake Powell was created by the flooding of Glen Canyon by the Glen Canyon Dam. It is the second largest man-made reservoir in the USA, storing 24,322,000 acre feet (3.0001×1010 m3) of water when full. However, it is currently far from full. This is due to persistent dry periods and the withdrawal of large amounts of water for agricultural use.
