<br />Colorado Water Availability Task Force <br />Review and Reporting Task Force Report <br />May 1, 2002 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Dear Governor Owens, <br /> <br />I would first like to thank you for your leadership and direction on what is proving to be <br />Colorado's worst drought in 25 years. With snowpack at historic lows and no immediate <br />relief in sight, the drought we are experiencing brings with it consequences for nearly <br />every Coloradan. <br /> <br />Upon your direction, the Water Availability Task Force (W ATF) met on April 24, 2002, <br />to review Colorado's drought conditions. At that meeting, I provided a letter from you <br />that asked the Impact Task Forces to convene and respond to you by May 1, 2002, with <br />an assessment of potential drought impacts on several sectors. Additionally, any <br />activities that should be taken related to the monitoring, assessment, response and <br />mitigation of the drought conditions in Colorado were to be included in the report. <br /> <br />I am pleased to report that the Impact Task Forces have been formed and are actively <br />collecting useful information related to the current drought conditions. <br /> <br />As a first step, the Review and Reporting Task Force proposes the following actions. <br /> <br />The Water Availability Task Force and the Review and Reporting Task Force await your <br />direction in the implementation of the next steps of the drought plan. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />, LV : <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Brad Lundahl, Chair <br />Water Availability Task Force <br /> <br />. <br />
