High Country Conservation Center

High County Conservation Center, Located in Summit County, Colorado, in Partnership With the Town of Frisco, Colorado, Will Update the 2018 Blue River Watershed Regional Water Efficiency Plan and the Water Efficiency Plans for the Town of Frisco, Town of Dillon, Town of Breckenridge, and Cooper Mountain Consolidated Metropolitan District. Decreasing Snowpack Levels, Increasing Temperatures, and Increased Water Diversions Out of the Watershed Have Reduced the Amount of Water Available for Local Use, Making Conservation Activities Essential to Meet Needs of the Community. the Conservation Center Will Engage an Advisory Committee to Provide Input From Key Stakeholder Groups Analyze Water Conservation Progress Under the Existing Conservation Plans Identify Current Water Conservation Challenges and Opportunities Update Data on the Existing Water Supply Systems and Current Water Demand Analyze Historical Water Management Strategies and Future Water Supply Needs and Conduct an Economic Benefits Analysis to Prioritize Water Conservation Projects for Implementation. Participants in This Planning Effort Include Local Governments and Agencies, Business Groups, the U.s. Forest Service, and Recreation Groups.
