Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Snake Valley is noted for a water project involving the Las Vegas metropolitan area, that would target the underlying Basin and Range Carbonate Aquifer, an aquifer that supplies local agriculture and is a relatively large source of water for such an arid region. The project is proposed by SNWA, the water authority that services the Las Vegas metropolitan area. In the proposal, a pipeline would be built from Snake Valley to supply pumped groundwater to be used as municipal water for the Clark County, Nevada region, with amounts ranging up to 137,000 acre-feet per year. Local ranchers and environmentalists have objected to this removal of water from local aquifers,comparing the situation to Owens Valley, California and noting local drawdowns and springs drying up just from local agricultural pumping, like at Needle Point Springs.Enhanced demand on the water from locals and enhanced hydrogeologic monitoring have occurred as a result of this proposal, including the USGS''s BARCASS study and the Utah Geological Survey''s Snake Valley Groundwater Monitoring Program.
