Lincoln is currently experiencing its 10th driest year to date, with its primary water source, wells along the Platte River, becoming less reliable as parts of the Platte River dried up over the summer. The capital city is looking for alternatives, and a group of 27 advisors will decide on its selection in January 2023.
