The University of Colorado at Boulder Law School

Water and Growth in Colorado identifies an extremely diverse and complex set of water law and policy issues associated with this current period of unprecedented growth in the state. Based on interviews with approximately 70 key Colorado water leaders as well as an extensive review of recent water studies and legal documents, the report describes existing water problems and potential solutions. The issues identified range from highly specific legal concerns to broader issues about the appropriate relationship of people to their environment. The range of potential solutions identified is equally diverse, including management strategies based on legal reforms, market tools, and technological innovations.
