Disappointment and Frustration: A Plea to Save Candy Lake

The author is writing to Senator David Boren expressing disappointment and frustration about his proposal to abandon the work on Candy Lake in order to continue work on Skiatook Lake. The author argues that Candy Lake is also necessary for flood control, water conservation, and protection of farm land in the area. They suggest that both lakes can coexist and that the Osage Nation should be fairly compensated for potential loss of minerals. The author urges the senator not to waste taxpayer money and to continue with the original plans for both lakes. They also mention that they will encourage others to contact the senators office to protest the proposed abandonment of Candy Lake.
