I have very little doubt that there are many factors to consider, not the least of which would be eminent domain, collection, treatment, cost, ownership, etc. That said, as 50 inches of rain is pouring onto Houston, it makes me wonder why we have no way of removing that unwanted fresh water to a drought stricken area that needs water for irrigation. It's not a perfect solution, but being able to relieve drought with flood waters seems like a good idea to investigate.REPORT COMMENTS

This is a win-win for everyone involved.States that do not have enough water would be willing to pay for it. States that have too much water could sell it. The pipeline could easily be incorporated in the interstate highway system. Large reservoirs could be built throughout the system to store excess water. Some part of the country is always being flooded so there is no excuse for not doing this.REPORT COMMENTS

I'm sure the issue and solution is much more complex than stated here, but we at least need to have a comprehensive assessment of what it would take to accomplish this. Do, maybe the first step should be raise funds or pass legislation for EIPR + feasibility/cost study. t's incredibly difficult to capture flood waters. And there would surely be some unintended environmental impact from the construction, but in the overall picture it seems like it would be worth it (again, though "seems" and "is" are two different things and, we need a through independent and neutral scientific evaluation.REPORT COMMENTS

So simple and idea seems ridiculous we haven't built one or started one in at least the last 10 yrs (EAST gets into droughts too). Shipping excess rain or other water (snow) through a say 6ft diameter pipeline could put billions of gallons of water in storage (the pipeline itself) not to mention the benefit of shipping water from places with excess to places in need. By introducing more hydration into areas experiencing drought would also affect atmospheric conditions to the east, north and south so there is an environmental impact, but it is less likely as destructive affects of a regional drought.REPORT COMMENTS

After moving from Palm Desert, CA to Orlando, FL and back to Palm Desert 2 months ago. Over 7 feet of rain per year in Orlando, sinkholes etc. I cannot fathom why a water pipeline to CA is not already underway. Benefits to both states.REPORT COMMENTS

Communist China builds the largest dams and the largest bridges in the world. Yet the most powerful nation in the world, the one that set a man on moon, cannot even figure out how to use the God given resources we have in our own country. This type of project, is the type our pioneering forefathers would have dreamt up. We have more than enough water in this country it is just a matter of distribution. Water is life. Unshackle America, have vision, create, build, take water west quench their thirst and grow the country. God save our country from the small minded and self centered.REPORT COMMENTS

I do not have faith that this could ever happen, given that congress doesn't actually care about the people. They only care about oil companies and who pays them off. But I am signing this anyway in the hopes that someone might prove me wrong. This seems like such a no brainer.REPORT COMMENTS
