AUDIE CORNISH, HOST:
The water levels behind the Colorado River s biggest dams are at record lows, and that means the historic drought in Western states will probably start showing up in people s energy bills because those dams can t produce as much electricity. Luke Runyon from member station KUNC has more.
LUKE RUNYON, BYLINE: Standing at the base of Glen Canyon Dam in northern Arizona, the Colorado River flows out of Lake Powell cold and clear. On the canyon walls, moss grows where water from behind the dams seeps slowly through the red sandstone, and the air buzzes with electricity. ....

Hydropower Worries Grow As Colorado River Reservoirs Keep Dropping

Bureau of Reclamation Glen Canyon Dam manager, Bob Martin, stands on a ledge overlooking the Colorado River as it leaves Lake Powell.
The water levels behind the Colorado River’s biggest dams are fast-approaching or already at record lows. The historic 21-year megadrought that is squeezing some Western states’ water supplies will also likely start showing up in energy bills, because those dams can’t produce as much electricity.
The problem is most acute at the Upper Colorado River basin’s largest reservoir: Lake Powell. At the base of Glen Canyon Dam in northern Arizona, the Colorado River flows out cold and clear. On the canyon walls, moss grows where water from behind the dam seeps slowly through the red sandstone. The air buzzes with electricity. ....
