Installation of the RWSP would have a huge environmental impact on the natural watersheds of the Green River and the Flaming Gorge. Continuous removal of water will cause dramatic depletion of water level. Depletion of water level means loss of habitat for organisms found in the Seeskadee Wildlife Refuge

eco tourism

the RSWP would not only cause adverse environmental effects, but eco-tourism companies will also suffer. Companies that provide services such as white water rafting and kayaking.

con struction

the RWSP had a proposed 578 miles of pipline required to cons truct. Building this massive pipeline to move 250,000 AF of water proved to be a difficult task in both terms of construct ion and engineering

the building of the Regional Watershed Supply Project is expected to target 3 core users found throughout the Wyoming-Colorado state border. These users are: Agriculture Municipalities Industries

Aaron Million, CEO of Wyco Power & Water Inc. proposes to build a pipeline that “forks”Wyoming’s Green River and Flaming Gorge Reservoir. Entitled the Regional Watershed Supply Project, the aims of this proposal stems from a need of various communities in both southeastern Wyoming and the Front Range of Colorado. Estimated services of this pipeline would be for expected water shortages in the year 2030 for the agricultural,municipal, and industrial usages within Wyoming and Colorado.

if allowed, the RWSP proposed by the Million Conservation Resource would double the price of water per acre-feet than compared to the average for the state of Colorado. There is no agricultural, municipal, or industrial company that is willing to pay for water that is that expensive.
