The Colorado River is in crisis. A record drought and new federal rules mean significant water cuts for states in the Lower Basin. But what could those changes mean for the Upper Basin states, including Colorado?
Join Rocky Mountain Community Radio for a special statewide call-in show exploring the future of the Colorado River.
Our guests will include Jim Lochhead, former CEO of Denver Water, who served for 20 years as the governor’s representative on interstate Colorado River operations and as Colorado’s commissioner to the Upper Colorado River Commission.
We’ll also be joined byShannon Mullane, who reports on the Colorado River and water issues for The Colorado Sun.
The show will be co-hosted by Rocky Mountain Community Radio rural climate reporter Caroline Llanes and Luke Runyon of the Water Desk.
Thursday, September 17, from 6 to 7 p.m.
