WASHINGTON, July 31 -- Sen. Michael Bennet issued the following press release:
Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet issued a statement following the release of the Bureau of Reclamation's final environmental impact statement outlining a plan for operating the Colorado River.
"I am disappointed that the Interior Department could not develop a 7-state consensus agreement. While a 2-year operating plan is the bare minimum needed to operate the river, a long-term, consensus agreement that recognizes real hydrologic conditions is the only durable solution to bring certainty to the Colorado River."
