Description
The upper gunnison river water conservancy district (district), located in the headwaters of the colorado river basin in gunnison, colorado, represents water users in portions of gunnison, hinsdale and saguache counties in the upper gunnison basin. The basin has been experiencing persistent drought over the past 20 years with back to back extreme droughts in 2002 04, 2011 13, 2015, and 2018 present. A critical challenge to the communities within the district is planning and designing for resilience from the impact of droughts with regards to sustainable management of their water resources. The district will develop a new drought contingency plan (DCP) that will build long term resilience to drought in the upper gunnison basin. The district will work with local water users including municipalities, industry, educational institutions, agricultural producers, recreationists, and environmental groups to prepare the DCP. The district will leverage existing planning efforts such as municipal source water protection planning, identification of forest and wildfire zones of concern and critical infrastructure, watershed and stream management planning, community wildfire protection planning, land use code updates, and community drought conservation messaging.
