The Great Salt Lake: A Case Study of One of the West’s Emerging Conflicts Over the Use of Water

The Lake’s watershed stretches north to Logan, south to Provo, and east into the mountains of the Wasatch Front.  Like other “terminal lakes” in the Great Basin, upstream water diversions for farms and cities have led to the Lake shrinking.  Join Dividing the Waters for its next amazing conference on water including the Friday field trip to the Great Salt Lake.

Participants will learn how to evaluate the scientific, technical and legal issues that arise in litigation over the use of water during a drought. At the conclusion of the conference, the participants will be better prepared to make reasoned and thoughtful decisions about the use of critical water resources.
