Greg Stanton urged the Bureau of Reclamation to consider the consensus-based modeling proposal made today by six of the seven Colorado River Basin states to protect the long-term health of the river: “The depletion of the Colorado River is a slow-moving natural disaster—one that threatens the livelihoods of 40 million people across seven basin states. Saving it will require collaboration, compromise and some tough tradeoffs. In that spirit, six of the seven basin states have come together on a modeling proposal for the Bureau of Reclamation to consider as it looks to make the necessary cuts to save the Colorado. This model is the result of months of challenging work and weighs every river user’s best interests, and I strongly encourage the Bureau of Reclamation to include this alternative in its review. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:08:17Z |
