Description
Description | The Southern Ute and Ute Mountain Ute Indian tribes in Colorado are seeking federal action to access and maintain water infrastructure. This includes repairing a failing water line delivering water from the Cortez Water Treatment Plant to Towaoc, updating a deteriorating federal irrigation system on the Southern Ute reservation, and improving access to reservoirs like Lake Nighthorse near Durango, created by the Animas-La Plata Project. Federal funding for these projects has been frozen, delaying repairs and infrastructure improvements. |
