Pouring Deer Creek into Utah Lake would increase the depth of Utah Lake by what?

At least Riverton and Draper could water all their lawns as much as they want.

In reality, Utah Lakes top level is governed by how much they put into the Jorda

Deer Creek holds 152,570 acre feet of water. The surface area of Utah lake

I would guess maybe 6 inches. Deer Creek is tiny compared to Utah Lake.

The Utah Geological Survey estimated that it would rise by 8 inches maximum.

If you consider being off by 33% "close".
