Moses Lake is the fifth largest lake in Washington State with up to 18 miles in length and over 120 miles of shore line covering 6500 acres. The current Moses Lake Irrigation and Rehabilitation District (MLIRD) budget is over $1.2 million with the support coming from the taxpayer. The current dredging project was to be complete in 2-3 years and now changed to 5 years and the sand bar may never be gone. Less than 4,000 cubic yards of sediment was removed in 2011 with the reported removal by the MLIRD at over 20,000 cubic yards. Please drive by Parker Horn on highway 17 and see what your tax dollars have purchased with very little change in the sand bar and a small pile of sediment.
