Copper’s Play Forever Fridays program raises $34,000 for nonprofits
Surveys show significant fish declines in Blue River upstream of Dillon Reservoir
Colorado River District provides funds for Blue River basin project
April 26, 2021 - Taylor Sienkiewicz
The Colorado River District has approved funding for several projects across the Western Slope, including Phase 2 of the Blue River Integrated Water Management Plan in Summit County. The district allocated $25,000 to the project. The Blue River plan was created by the Blue River Watershed Group and Trout Unlimited in 2019. The goal of the plan is to understand why there is a decline of fish between the Dillon and Green Mountain reservoirs and how to reverse or mitigate the problem. The plan and its associated research is also intended to guide future goals and projects in the Blue River basin watershed. Phase 2 of the plan involves gathering data and analyzing certain areas of the Blue River basin identified as needing further analysis in Phase 1. |
