Big day for #cowater! @GovofCO signs the Projects Bill (HB 1316) funding critical water programs & Groundwater Compact Compliance Fund (SB 028) for Rio Grande and Republican river basin reduction efforts. @ColoradoDNR @dangibbsDNR @DonaldValdezCO
DWR staff are all thankful for the rain today and we want to remind you that now that we are into May, you can tune into Colorado's Flood Threat Bulletin @COFloodUpdates to be prepared for flood threats. Thank you @CWCB_DNR!
DWR measures snowpack at different snow survey locations in the mountains to keep the long-term dataset complete and track trends. Science Friday recently reported on this effort in a story called, The Colorado River misses it's snow. sciencefriday.com/segments/color…

At the Rio Grande gauging station near town of Del Norte. Colorado has been taking measurements of Rio Grande at this gauge station since 1889. Measurements here tell state how much water CO can deliver downstream to New Mexico to comply with Rio Grande compact. #SanLuisValley
Kudos to our sister agency for improving safety on the Arkansas River.
How does @COParksWildlife keep the Arkansas River - the US's most commercially rafted - safe for boaters & anglers? @AHRA_CPW Rangers remove deadly hazards like this Cottonwood on a popular tubing/rafting spot near Cañon City. Small pieces were submerged to enhance the fishery.

Proud to do our part for #water22, and every year.
Colorado’s responsibility as a headwater state is part of the reason myself and other state leaders launched Water ’22 earlier this year. water22.org
