Heinz request was to collect ten cubic feet per second. The U.S. Geological Survey defines cubic foot per second (cfs) as "the flow rate or discharge equal to one cubic foot of water per second or about 7.5 gallons per second."

They wanted 75 gallons per SECOND, the way I read this. Heinz wanted a few million gallons of water a month?

Well, yes. She had a lawn, y'know. She really, really needed it.

And what use of the water did "the little people" have?
