Conduit III

A better idea.

Based on what I’ve read in the Pueblo Chieftain, I think State Representative McFayden (D-Pueblo West) is on the right track.

Her bill, HB1352 on considering water quality in water court decisions, passed a major hurtle, a House committee. This over the obvious objections from our friends in Colorado Springs.

The real test will come on the floors of the House and Senate, where, thanks to the Warren Supreme Court, places like Colorado Springs and Denver, have an inordinate amount of legislative authority.

My money is on the bill dying because the large metropolitan districts do NOT want to have to be held responsible for what they’ve done to water. There’s more to this than most people realized.
