Great Salt Lake Conservation Strategy
💧 The low water levels of Great Salt Lake threaten Utah's economy, ecology, and public health.
🌾 Human water use has remained relatively constant, with agriculture being the largest consumer of water.
🤝 Collaborative efforts among stakeholders are essential for the successful recovery and health of the lake.
🌦️ Water shepherding ensures that conserved water effectively reaches the Great Salt Lake for restoration.
💡 The conservation strategy aims to fill and maintain the lake at a healthy elevation level.
