Hasnain says:

“Water levels on Lake Mead have been dropping after two decades of drought made worse by climate change, with federal and state officials recently reaching a $200 million deal to maintain the viability of the reservoir that millions of people rely on.

But authorities had warned the public that Lake Mead's falling water levels could lead to the discovery of more bodies hidden below the surface.”
