Ann McGinley grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the third child in a family of four. Her mother was a homemaker and her father was a lawyer. It was because of her father that she became interested in civil rights. Ann attended college and majored in Spanish. She earned a master’s degree and taught in Spain for five years. Her brother and his wife were lawyers and she decided to go back to law school at the University of Pennsylvania. Ann did a two year clerkship for a federal judge, doing research and drafting opinions. She met her husband-to-be during this time and they mover to Minneapolis. Ann did commercial litigation and worked on a class action suit against the school system on behalf of the American Indian population. Her husband wanted to teach and was hired by Brooklyn Law School. Their first child was on the way and Ann studied for the bar in New Jersey. She then worked for a small firm in Labor and Employment Discrimination. A teaching job at Brooklyn Law School opened up and she worked part-time there for four or five years, meanwhile giving birth to two more children. It then seemed like the right time to make a career move, so Ann and her husband applied and were hired at Florida State in Tallahassee. After watching others being denied tenure and having experienced that denial themselves, they were ready to move on. A phone call from Carl Tobias inviting them to UNLV was followed up with interviews, and the McGinley’s made the move to Las Vegas. Ann and her family settled in Green Valley in 1999 during Carol Harter’s administration. Ann drafted the plan for a clinical program, which uses real clients to help train law students, and has helped build other programs for the law school. Ann now teaches employment law, employment discrimination, disabilities discrimination law, torts, and occasionally civil procedure. Her vision for the future of the law school is for it to continue with its social mission, and perhaps for a satellite campus to open at UNR. She is confident that the UNLV law school will continue to be a place where women can thrive.

Two unidentified men are examining the side view of the Jarva Tunnel Borer's cutter head. The first stage of construction was completed between 1968-1971, and is comprised of a main aqueduct, a 3.78 mile tunnel through the River Mountains, eight pumping plants, and 31.4 miles of pipeline. This stage has a peaking capacity of 26.7 million cubic feet of potable water per day. The second stage enlarged the first stage system by expanding some of the existing facilities. New features included five pumping plants, the second barrel to the main aqueduct, and about 30 miles of pipeline and laterals with surge tanks, regulating tanks, and other delivery facilities. In conjunction with this stage, the State of Nevada enlarged and modified the Alfred Merritt Smith water treatment facilities to accommodate additional water supplies. The River Mountains Tunnel was constructed to full capacity in the first stage, and the Saddle Island intake facilities were oversized to accommodate both stages. The aqueduct system has a peaking capability of 53.4 million cubic feet of water per day. The River Mountains Tunnel was constructed during the first stage to accommodate second stage expansion. It is 3.78 miles long and was excavated through the River Mountains, which lie between Las Vegas Valley and Lake Mead. The concrete-lined tunnel has an inside diameter of 121.5 inches, and a maximum capacity of 608 cfs. The SNWA also constructed a larger tunnel, parallel to the River Mountains Tunnel for further expansion. The River Mountains Tunnel is used to convey raw water from Lake Mead to the River Mountains Water Treatment Facility that SNWA constructed near Henderson, NV. The River Mountains Facility, which began delivering treated water in October 2002, treats up to 300 million gallons of water per day, and was designed so it can expand to meet Southern Nevada's needs. In the future, the River Mountains facility will be able to treat up to 600 million gallons of water a day. This facility provides additional reliability and capacity to Southern Nevada's municipal water treatment and distribution capabilities.
