[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 178817, member: 217"] The greater ramsey county water district paid to have these wetlands drained all the coulees that drain into devils lake have been dug out to allow for the water to end up in devils lake. Yes farmers made a big mess of the basin but the mcluski sheyanne diversion was supposed to allow for devils lake to have a natural outlet where the diversion waters would have been used for all sorts of irrigation though out the basin as well as parts of the red river valley basin. It didn't happen that way unfortunately and still the coulees get cleaned out when they need to as well as larger culvert to handle the runoff. It was one big pipe dream that turned into one big mess for some Do you know where devils lake gets it's water from I can tell you it's not in the basin it is pumped out of the sheyanne aquifer by warwick. Let the hog farm come let the county use it's authority to hold people accountable it's when people who have the authority but don't enforce it thats the problem. [/QUOTE]
