LAKE POWELL — Long-term drought has reduced Colorado River system storage to about 36 percent of capacity, and the combination of the lowest snowpack on record and record-breaking March heat has further intensified drought conditions across the Basin. These compounding factors are creating elevated risks to essential water and power infrastructure that supply water to more than 40 million people, underscoring the need for immediate action.
The Department of the Interior is moving forward with the Post-2026 NEPA process to finalize operating guidelines for Colorado River reservoirs by Oct. 1, 2026.
Hours before the first decorated boat ever touched the water, spectators were already lining both sides of the Colorado River from Bullhead City to Laughlin on Saturday evening.
Bullhead City has earned national recognition, ranked among the top 15 RV destinations in the United States by StorageCafe.
The Department of the Interior and the Bureau of Reclamation have marked major progress for the continued short-term health of the Colorado River System.
