Please join us, along with American Whitewater, Colorado River Outfitters Association, American Rivers and many other businesses and river advocacy groups in opposing the Flaming Gorge Pipeline.
The Flaming Gorge Pipeline, also known as the Regional Watershed Supply Project, is a proposed water pipeline system that would divert up to 250,000 acre-feet of water from Flaming Gorge Reservoir, out of the Colorado River Basin, to the Front Range of Colorado. The project costs are estimated to exceed $6 billion, with water costs over $4500 per acre-foot per year.
Proposed by private entrepreneur, Aaron Million of Fort Collins, Colorado, the project aims to utilize the Green River near the Wyoming/Colorado border and the Interstate 80 corridor in Wyoming to bypass some of the physical and political challenges of diverting Colorado River water from the Western Slope of Colorado to the Front Range.
