The Colorado River Authority of Utah, in partnership with Central Utah Water Conservancy District and Utah Division of Water Resources, has been selected to receive $1M in federal funding through the Bureau of Reclamation's Snow Water Supply Forecasting Program to pilot an emerging snow measurement technology in Utah. The pilot project, Flakes, Flights, and Forecasts: Enhanced Snow Measurement in the Uinta Mountain Headwaters, will support three years of remotely-sensed snow data collection and runoff forecasting through Airborne Snow Observatories, Inc. Many thanks to our co-applicants and peer organizations who supported this proposal.
