Depleting the Ogallala Aquifer. How fast? How soon?

in my daily news search i came across a well written article about the ogallala aquifer, and the depletion issues its facing not some time in the future but today; at this very moment. you probably remember us discussing this aquifer during the pdc, but a refresher is that its the largest freshwater source on the planet, is a geologic structure existing on the eatern front of the rockies (from texas to north dakota), and supplies water for a large percentage of the nations crops. in the article they profile a small town that, due to the aquifers varying regional depth, is a canary in the coal mine for this rapidly emerging issue.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/8359076/US-farmers-fear-the-return-of-the-Dust-Bowl.html                  i find it intriguing that the article appeared only in a UK newspaper. Also sorry to all those grammar fanatics out there. I'm doing this from my phone, and just discovered  that shift and caps work in strange ways on blogger, but I think I've figured it out now.
