	Publication #: B-1384 Date Published: 05/23/2022 Publication Author(s): Ginger Paige Kristi Hansen Anne Mackinnon

Description:

Wyoming and the other three Upper Division States are working through the Upper Colorado River Commission to examine whether a proactive approach to use less water voluntarily in advance could help minimize or avoid a curtailment situation. This Upper Basin effort is termed the Demand Management Feasibility Investigation, with assessments taking place within each individual state and among all four states jointly. In Wyoming, the Wyoming State Engineer’s Office in cooperation with the Attorney General’s Office has been investigating the feasibility of a Demand Management program, under guidelines established under the 2019 Colorado River Drought Contingency Plan Authorization Act. Within Wyoming, a crucial part of that investigation is working with Wyoming Colorado River Basin water users and other key stakeholders to learn about their thoughts, concerns and issues related to a potential Demand Management program in Wyoming.
