The Northern Integrated Supply Project:

Provides a secure water future for Northern Colorado

Enhances recreation opportunities to encourage healthy, outdoor lifestyle 

Supports environmental and wildlife stewardship

Improves safety and reliability while reducing water waste

How We'll Do It:

Create two new water storage reservoirs that will provide substantial public outdoor recreation opportunities

Relocate and bring up to modern safety standards approximately seven miles of U.S. Highway 287 northwest of Fort Collins

Complete various ditch and canal improvements throughout the system to increase reliability and reduce waste

Bury large, safe, resilient pipelines to enable cooperative water exchanges and delivery to cities, towns and water districts that provide water to 500,000 people today
