Community Property in California. California is a community property state whereby it is presumed that each spouse has an undivided one-half interest in any property acquired during the marriage while domiciled in California (California Family Code Â§ 760).
The Great Salt Lake is salty because it is endorheic...that is, it has no outlet to release water except for evaporation. As a result, mineral salts accumulate over time, resulting in either a very salty body of water (the Aral and Dead Seas and the Great Salt Lake) or extensive salt flats (Such as Bonneville in Utah).
Rivers are actually salty. The level of salts and minerals are so low that the human taste buds usually can't detect it. Just like tap water usually has some minerals in it, and we call it hard water.. Any time water runs over rocks, soaks through the soil, etc, it picks up those minerals and salts.
