Abstract

This article discusses the storage of conserved/foregone use water in Lake Powell to provide a means of ensuring sufficient water reaches the Lower Colorado Basin in compliance with the Colorado River Compact to avoid curtailment of water uses in the Upper Basin. It discusses some of the associated issues, including how to shepherd this water from its place of use in Colorado to Lake Powell.
