Washington County is located in southwest Utah and shares a border with northwestern Arizona and southeastern Nevada. The Washington County Water Conservancy District (WCWCD) is the primary water supplier for the county, and according to the Draft Environmental Statement, the District says the Virgin River Basin is the exclusive source for the region’s water supply, which prompted the District to propose the Lake Powell Pipeline. Worth noting, earlier this year, the US Census Bureau ranked St. George Utah as the fifth fastest growing metropolitan region in the nation, with a 29 percent population growth rate between 2010 and 2019. On this edition of the Wild Hare, we chat with Kyle Roerink, executive director of the Great Basin Water Network about the Lake Powell Pipeline project.
