Balanced Rock in Arches National Park and the La Sal Mountains

CWC focuses on the watersheds of southeastern Utah. Our work lies mostly within a region bounded by:

 

Western boundary: Green/Colorado rivers

Northern boundary: Bookcliffs (White River watershed line)

Eastern Boundary: Dolores River and state line

Southern Boundary: San Juan River

 

• Provide opportunities to educate our community leadership to create plans in the framework of watershed protection for a healthy and safe community.

• Find opportunities for community supported agriculture.

• Develop local power generation with operations that do not emit carbon, consume water, or jeopardize sensitive resources.

• Convert our community waste into community resources.

• Be a good neighbor toward protecting surface water and ground water from toxic pollution.

• Reduce energy consumption by increasing the efficiency of our homes and businesses.

• Create a firm water budget for the community and reserve a portion of the total supply for resilency against drought and global climate change.

• Fund and implement a riparian restoration plan and watershed protection plan for the Mill Creek corridor.
