In 2013, Governor Hickenlooper issued an executive order calling for the development of a statewide water plan. Each river basin in the state, including the Arkansas Basin, has been charged with developing a Basin Implementation Plan (BIP) that will forecast future water needs in the basin and identify ways to meet those growing needs in a state where water is scarce. Each basin's BIP will inform Colorado's Water Plan.
Phase I of the Arkansas Basin Implementation Plan has been completed, and Phase 2 has begun. The members of the Arkansas Basin Roundtable urge all citizens to consider the importance of water to our future, and to get involved now by joining us at our monthly meetings and telling us what you think. The Final BIP will be submitted to the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB) in April 2015.
