Voluntary water conservation program.

Summary

The act lets holders of water rights in Wyoming’s portion of the Colorado River basin apply to the state engineer for approved conservation projects that reduce consumptive use. It sets up a filing, public‑notice, comment, and appeal process, and allows conserved water to be stored and later released. The program is intended to help Wyoming meet its interstate compact obligations while protecting existing water rights.
