Why is there such a big concern over lake balkhash drying up?

Xinjiang's growing population has increased its demand for water for industry and irrigation, raising concerns that the supply of water to Lake Balkhash could be drastically reduced. This would affect not only the population around the lake, but the entire Ili-Balkhash river basin where around one fifth of Kazakhstan's population lives.
