Cover Story
Tempe Arizona created a 2-mile lake in the dry Salt River bed in 1999. Winter rains in January 2008 pass over the rubber dams that hold Town Lake. These rubber dams deflate enough to pass seasonal storms. Yet, even a 10-year storm event can change the lake bottom contour as was discovered in 2007 when Tempe used Aquatechnex to map Town Lake. For the full story, see page 38. Photo credit: Tony Blei - SmartAz Photography.
