Water (Pt. 3)

Tune in for the final installment in our three-part series on water. In this episode, we’re talking about the State Water Strategy: a fifty-year plan that outlines the strategies and steps we can take to ensure we have enough clean and affordable water to sustain our thriving communities and a healthy and resilient natural environment, even as our state continues to grow.

We focus on both state-wide and individual water conservation, agricultural optimization, preservation of natural systems, water infrastructure, and the shift we need in how Utahns value water. 

We’d like to extend a special thanks to our expert guests for joining us in this episode: Teresa Wilhelmsen, State Engineer of the Division of Water Rights, Candice Hasenyager, Director of the Division of Water Resources, Tage Flint, from the Weber Basin Conservancy District, Dr. Joanna Endter-Wada, Professor of Natural Resource Policy & Social Science in the Department of Environment and Society at USU, and Warren Peterson, seasoned water attorney and former VP of Farmland Inc.
