Wise water use needs to be a priority for Utah residents during current drought conditions

Most Utah residents know the majority of the water supply in northern Utah comes from snowpack. This means that lackluster winters result in lighter spring runoff. Reservoirs used to store water for drinking, irrigation and agriculture suffer because they are unable to fill and recover from the previous year s water use. In Utah, snow is the lifeblood of our economy and quality of life. Weber Basin Water Conservancy District provides water to a service area with nearly 700,000 residents in Davis, Weber, Morgan, Summit and part of Box Elder counties. The district is committed to protecting existing water resources, using them wisely and providing for the future. This commitment requires collaborative and innovative strategies and programs with robust public involvement and support.
