CBS News interviews Colonel Michael Teague about the drought in Oklahoma.

While this video does not address Canton directly it does address the drought that is plaguing Corp lakes all across Oklahoma. It gives an idea of what the Colonel is dealing with across the state. The Canton Lake Association learned a lot yesterday in our meeting with the Colonel, about various situations at different lakes that are under the Corps control and have many different interested or invested parties wanting to do different things with the water. The Colonel said this drought is a serious issue and the Corp has been tracking it and trying to get the word out to officials for quite some time about the severity of it.
