LAKE MEREDITH

'Lake Meredith' is a man-made lake formed by a dam on the Canadian River at Sanford, Texas. It is located about 30 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas in the Texas Panhandle. It is a major source of drinking water for Amarillo and Lubbock, Texas, located about 150 miles to the south along with many other towns in between and nearby. In 2003, the Canadian River Municipal Water Authority announced that it would reduce allocations to its member cities due to an ongoing drought and a continued drop in the water level in the reservoir.
