> ever-increasing demand being placed on the system from development
Glad to see recognition that people and industry could help by reducing water usage. Huge consumers such as Denver Water talk about conservation yet new residential and commercial developments still seem to be built as if water is unlimited.
It's also: not my problem, let someone else deal with it, while I make money NOW and they don't even really know the extent of the problem. It's also how we got here, and we continue to let speculators externalize costs to society at large.
Careful study of a park service map for RMNP will show a tunnel. It is a water tunnel serving northern Colorado on east of divide. Fascinating construction history.
