“You describe it as if we have a whole cemetery, ... continuous years of drought.”
Robert Mugabe
“It's like having a persistent drought. At some point when you have drought conditions you have to institute water rationing, and that's what you potentially face in the military if it goes on long enough. You would get to a stage where you don't have enough people to staff your organizations.”
Daniel Goure
“We were definitely in drought conditions. It's nice to get little shots of precipitation instead of one big gulp, which we really don't need. This will really help the farmers out.”
Steve Teachout
“The real problem is the underlying drought conditions.”
Mitch Miller
“We don't have any immediate requirements for initiating the drought contingency plan. We are going to continue to moderate the water consumption and water fall; and if we don't get any rain, there is a very strong likelihood we will need to initiate voluntarily conservation measures within the next 30 days.”
