DAY ZERO INSIGHTS: Cape Town’s elite suburbs guzzle water at the expense of the poor, new research finds

Quick Glance: As flood dangers approach, look inside the scientific guessing that keeps Utah water managers awake at night.
- According to Jesse Stewart, deputy director of Salt Lake City Public Utilities, in order to decide how much water to release from reservoirs — and when — water managers must assess data from many sources.
- Salt Lake City Public Utilities has been releasing water from its reservoirs, especially Little Dell, for several months after authorities noticed the snowpack was increasing, according to Laura Briefer, director of the department.
- Because of the expected large runoff, water managers may release more water from Little Dell this year than usual, she added.
- "Flood water flows downstream," explained Rathje.
