Private firms scour booming Nevada desert for water profits Real estate projects in the Nevada desert are flourishing thanks to an ambitious water project. With a 35-kilometre underground pipeline, Vidler Water Resources is bringing water under the desert straight into the sprawling suburbs of Reno, some 30 miles away. It is a gamble that could prove lucrative in a region regularly hit by droughts. But some worry about the long-term impact of these water transfers.
