About the Salton Sea, from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Salton Sea is an inland saline lake, located in the Colorado Desert in Southern California, north of the Imperial Valley. The lake covers a surface area of around 376 square miles (974 km˛), making it the largest lake in California. However, it varies in dimensions and area due to changes in agricultural runoff and rain. It averages 15 by 35 miles (24 by 56 km). Its maximum depth is 51 feet and its total volume is about 7.5 million acre-feet. Annual Sea inflow is 1.36 million-acre-feet per year.
The Salton Sea falls partially within the territories of Riverside County and Imperial County. Like Death Valley, it is located below sea level, with the current surface of the Sea at about 220 ft (65 meters) below sea level. The Sea is fed by the New, Whitewater, and Alamo rivers, as well as a number of minor agricultural drainage paths and creeks.
WARNING: The Salton Sea is a very controversial topic! Some people believe the water is clean and safe, while others think it is a cesspool of sewage and other pollutants. As with any information, you should seek several sources before forming opinions or making decisions.
