A barrel containing human remains was found in Lake Mead on May 1. Officials expect that more such discoveries may follow with the lake being at a historic low. The highest water intake became visible last week, forcing Las Vegas to draw water from deeper in the lake. Associated Press News (New York), May 2, 2022 Human skeletal remains were discovered at Callville Bay in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area on May 7.
