Million Pipeline Brings Millions of Issues

A Colorado developer has proposed a pipeline project that will take billions of gallons of water out of the Green River system per year. Yes I meant to type BILLIONS! This is bad news if you are an angler, hunter, river runner, environmentalist etc… Just the thought that this type of pipeline COULD happen makes me sick. Apparently the Front Range needs this water worse than the Basin the Green has drained into since the beginning of time. I've fished the Front Range a bit (quite good fishing I might add) and it seems like they have plenty of water compared to the second driest state in the union (Utah).
