West Colorado Watershed Council

Welcome to the West Colorado River Watershed Council page!

The West Colorado River Watershed Council will be one of the 12 local watershed councils that will operate in Utah.

Current Status

We are in the process of organizing this council and anticipate it convening in summer of 2024. This process will include 1-2 large organizing meetings. The dates and location of these meetings will be posted below when available.

Purpose

Local watershed councils are created to encourage and facilitate discussion and collaboration or water-related issues and concerns among the stakeholders within the watershed. As feasible, the watershed council will facilitate communication and coordination among the following interests:

  • Agriculture
  • Industry
  • Utah tribal nations
  • Public water suppliers
  • Water planning and research institutions
  • Water quality
  • Fish and wildlife
  • Water dependent habitat and environments
  • Watershed management
  • Mutual irrigation companies
  • Local sponsors of reclamation projects

Each local watershed council will designate one representative to serve on the Utah Watersheds Council, where issues of concern can be brought to the attention of the Legislature and governor.
