Description

Uncompahgre valley water users association (uvwua) operates the gunnison tunnel project, which delivers over 500,000 acre-feet annually and provides irrigation water to over 83,000 acres of land located in montrose and delta counties, colorado. Additionally, they deliver approximately 9,000 acre-feet per year to municipal providers. Most of the surface water use in the gunnison and uncompahgre basin is used for agricultural purposes however, rapid population growth is converting some of the agricultural water for municipal and industrial purposes. Uvwua will develop a new drought contingency plan to evaluate new approaches for determining when to call for water shortage contingency plan actions, review the science related to early prediction of drought climate conditions, and develop a response framework for irrigation and municipal deliveries to employ during future drought conditions. This plan will help better leverage available water resources now and into the future, while adapting to a changing climate and variability in water supplies.
