On the water front
2003
Overview
The bottom line is Utah has to figure out how it will deliver 646,000 acre-feet more, or about two-thirds more water than the amount being used by Utah households today. For the most part, efforts are focused on the roughly 420,000 acre-feet of water going unused down the Green and Colorado rivers, and another 250,000 acre-feet in the Bear River. Another 120,000 acre-feet of water can be developed from other rivers, but this is less likely, given current economics, to make its way to heavily populated areas. Zack Frankel, executive director of Utah Rivers Council and Utah's most vocal advocate of water conservation, agrees the perception that Utah is running out of water is a \"myth.\" But he diverges from state water planners when it comes to how to meet future demands, instead criticizing the lack of foresight in state policy that has focused on supply rather than demand.
