NGWA stresses need for increased funding for aquifer recharge and water reuse projects in western United States
In the wake of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) declaring a federal water shortage of the Colorado River Basin, NGWA is again stressing the need for increased funding for aquifer recharge and water reuse projects in the western United States. On August 16, the USBR declared its first-ever water shortage of the Colorado River Basin, which will trigger a smaller amount of water distributed from Lake Mead and cuts to individual state water allocations.
