Unfortunately, I doubt they'll take any sort of actual action to fix the problem. Most of the water is used for agriculture and a significant voting bloc that will block any solutions that involve water rationing or reducing. The local government being entirely in the pocket of business-oriented Republicans also means they're not likely to do anything that would significantly affect the bottom line of agricultural businesses. Or anything that would affect the middle upper class that uses a lot of cheap water for their gardens and what not.
So I don't see much hope for this until the storms of toxic dust from the now empty lakebed spur people into action. By then though it'll be too late.
