Hmm... water prices have risen a fair bit since the 1980s, same with oil.
It may not have made economic sense to build such a scheme in 1982. But
with the price of water increasing exponentially since the 80s, such an
engineering scheme would be economically viable today.


lol, can see you know nothing about anything.
why hasn't the price of engineering increased?


Of course the price of engineering has increased but the price of water has
increased even more. Moreover, there have been increased advances in
engineering technology in case you haven't noticed, lol.

Try reading up on it, you just might learn something.
