From what I recall, the western cali 86(?) Side is halfway under water on those occasional summer monsoons and there's a huge section to the south that would ditto by deepening more than 3ft. There is a ledge showing a previous lake level up about 10 ft high.

Don't know about the lawyers, but there be a s***pot load of farmers that won't allow right of way through Calexico or El Centro even though there is an existing irrigation drainage ditch. Everything else is Federal through the desert but has endangered.
