Gov. Brad Little sits down with East Idaho News to discuss water dispute, aquifer, and what's next

[@marybuckles3584]

Thanks for your coverage

[@August84118]

The fact our governor has “great confidence” in the water board increases my lack of confidence in the water board.

[@robertbergener5573]

Mob run water board?

[@chrystalspencer4697]

By recharge does he mean cobalt mining?

[@phylxguy5547]

Nothing to do with recharge it's to increase flows for hydro power for stocks they're invested into for big profits

[@ediebaxter4653]

Prayers resolve the water issues. Also, prayers for the kids and staff this year. Prayers for rain

[@robertbergener5573]

Pivot party in progress

Did not vote for little and I do not trust him.

[@GeneNorris-dk7rf]

Play good run don't know what he's talking about there's a half a million Farmers up there that grow potatoes that's going to mean potatoes are going to be 8 9 10 a pound

[@jamms2966]

As of 2022, the population of Idaho is 1.94 million. So you're saying over 25% of the state is growing potatoes there losing water which will make spuds costs $10/lb. They should have held you back in math class.

How much money are you getting from Idaho power.

[@eleshadenson1063]

The boy that cried wolf.

Why did they drain lucky peak reservoir? Please Nate find out cause it's not right.

[@timjohnson4453]

For dock repairs

[@eleshadenson1063]

Bedkey is a sell out

[@househen1]

Wow! This guy cannot answer a direct question. “We have a high level of confidence”, excuse me sir you were simply asked a yes or no question. So he basically answered with a no.

How does Weather Modification fit in with Little's plan? Do we have any tail numbers which spray?

Regenerative Ag

[@lukeslc-xd8ds]

The gov looks drunk to me. Just sayin'.

[@l.chrisjones7775]

The largest crop grown in this country is grass (lawns). Can we encourage a gradual switch to hybrid Bermuda grass. This can be especially beneficial for with places with huge lawns like parks and churches and golf courses, businesses and shopping centers etc. Its a type of grass that is really drought tolerant and doesn't spread, because it is non-invasive. It only needs to be watered like once every few weeks instead of every few days. Encourage individual homeowners and new housing developments to use hybrid Bermuda grass too.

We may all be growing our own food in the near future.

[@jamms2966]

Turf Type Tall Fescue is the preferred grass type in the Treasure Valley. It's deep roots & preference to be cut long allow it to handle hot, dry summers. It's also quite cold hardy unlike Bermuda which is why nobody grows that here.
