Fourth human remains found at Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Human remains have been found again in Lake Mead, the country's largest reservoir, which continues to shrink after decades of drought, officials said Sunday.

Someone spotted it around 11:15 a.m. Saturday at the park's swim beach on the Nevada side of Lake Mead National Recreation Area, according to the National Park Service. This is the fourth time since May that he has found human remainsin Lake Mead, where water levels continue to drop to historic levels.

With the help of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's dive team, park rangers responded and set boundaries for the recovery of the remains, he said, NPS said.

Officials say the water level in the reservoir is so low that it could become a "dead pool." This means the water is too low to flow downstream.

According to the U.S. Reclamation Bureau, the minimum water level required to generate electricity at the Hoover Dam is 1,050 feet. Anything below that is considered an "inactive pool," according to federal agencies, and a "dead pool" exists when the water level reaches 895 feet.
