“It’s maybe a year’s worth of breathing room”: Lake Powell is rising — for now. A large snowpack is quickly melting into the critical Colorado River reservoir, but experts say it will do little to reverse the effects of a historic megadrought. wapo.st/42pcyoP
Lake Powell is rising more than a foot a day. But megadrought’s effects will still be felt.

Lake Powell is rising more than a foot a day. But megadrought’s effects will still be felt.

Lake Powell's water levels are projected to rise 70 to 71 feet by this fall. The key Colorado River reservoir is benefitting from historically high water flows.

Seeing the high flow event at Glen Canyon Dam a couple weeks ago with @emyounghiguera and @100thMeridianKJ was definitely a career highlight for me! #ColoradoRiver #gcdamp

44 pages, 8 months, and many (many) hours of Smallmouth bass Ad Hoc Group meetings later ... we present to you the Nonnative Fish Strategic Plan 🐟🐠 I'm incredibly thankful for this experience and my co-chair. One step closer to protecting native fishes in the Grand Canyon!

"I’m a big believer in law, I’m a big believer in food security, but I’m an even bigger believer in math," says John Enstminger of @SNWA_H2O. "The law is complicated, the politics are complicated, the science and the math are not complicated."

It's official - the top of Intake No. 1 is now visible and the low lake level pumping station is now operational. The new low lake pumping station was completed in 2020 to ensure the delivery of high-quality water in Southern Nevada. Learn more at bit.ly/3rQXlfU

Awesome day learning about the Las Vegas Wash. It's an important resource for Lake Mead and provides critical habitat for many native species. Thanks for the tour, @SNWA_H2O @lvvwd !
