Last week’s news is compiled in our Western-Water Weekly video, embedded below:
Snowpack is falling behind, storms are flooding cities without fixing long-term shortages, and major water rules are being rewritten. This week’s Western Water Weekly breaks down what’s happening across the Colorado River Basin—from winter snow concerns and groundwater limits in Arizona to California flooding, pollution cleanup efforts, and a critical update to the federal definition of “waters of the United States.”
We explain what it all means in plain language, why it matters now, and what water managers are watching next.
