State of the River 2026

Description

Join your neighbors and local experts for a casual, public-information evening including not only a look at the upcoming hydrology, but a summary of major western water issues, and a spotlight for the projects and priorities in your local community.

Registration is required, but attendance and dinner are free. Register here.

Key topics at all events will include:

• River flow forecasts
• Updates on the Colorado River system
• Local water projects and priorities
• Current challenges facing Western Colorado water users
• Shoshone Water Rights Preservation Project updates
• The work of the Colorado River District to fight for West Slope water

If there are local water issues, or projects worth celebrating that you would like to see featured at your community’s State of the River meeting, please include that information in the registration form.

We encourage all community members—whether deeply involved in water issues or just beginning to engage—to join us and participate in this important conversation.

Secure your spot today and be part of shaping the future of water in western Colorado!

This event is presented by Colorado River District and the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District.
