Episode: 135: Update - 2023 Colorado River System Conservation Pilot Project
Description: Lily Bosworth, Staff Engineer for the Utah Colorado Authority of Utah, joins us to give an update on the SCPP. Great discussion about recent leasing efforts in the Colorado and brass tacks, like determining per acre-foot values, navigating changing economic conditions, types of conservation projects, and exciting developments to quantify water savings through satellite remote sensing. Looking to the future, the lessons learned through the 2023 SCPP may be able to be applied as a more permanent drought mitigation tool or demand management program for the State of Utah.
