Western Governors' Water Policy Arm to Consider Water Sharing Recommendations This Week in Santa Fe

The Western States Water Council - the water policy arm of the 18 Western Governors - this week will consider recommendations from diverse Western water leaders representing agricultural, environmental, and urban interests. The report - “Agricultural/Urban/Environmental Water Sharing: Innovative Strategies for the Colorado River Basin and the West” - is the result of convening representatives from The Nature Conservancy, Family Farm Alliance, Western Urban Water Coalition and two dozen others who set aside long-held positions and built new alliances for creative water sharing strategies for mutual benefit.
