Not sure what the PBS piece had, but without a big injection of water the Salton sea will evaporate, leaving behind a large toxic salt flat. Could just be refilling it

Right. Maybe I’ve got Dune on the brain, but is there no (eff me) cost effective way to recapture any of that evaporation and return or reuse it?
Not that it really matters….

Not from the Salton Sea; it’s a huge inland lake which has progressed from fresh to salty as water has evaporated from its surface.
