Get On Board with Colorado Water Plan

Did you know that the legislated Colorado Water Plan supports water storage, which is a primary responsibility of San Juan Water Conservancy District? The deeply researched document also discourages transmountain diversions, encourages responsible agricultural practices, promotes the health of rivers and riparian habitats, and recognizes the need for increased municipal water conservation. These intentions define what SJWCD is all about.

The Directors of SJWCD base the organization’s decisions on the Colorado Water Plan when considering the future water needs in the upper San Juan River watershed. Scientifically-based and data-driven research forms the basis of SJWCD actions.

Of course, anecdotal research that includes your opinions and community input is of paramount importance! Let SJWCD know what you’re thinking about water.
