Description

About the Event

The Colorado Stream Access Coalition (Coalition) is a group of recreational advocates and members of the public seeking to secure and clarify the public’s ability to use the natural waters of the state for recreational purposes. Members of the coalition have sought judicial and/or legislative routes to obtain this clarity in the past. The Coalition reached out to the Colorado Water Congress (CWC) early in the process of proposing a potential new legislative initiative. They asked the CWC to help establish a facilitated forum for stakeholders to collectively develop a path forward that both protects property rights and water rights while providing access to the recreational use of rivers and streams.

Presentation topics will include the Introduced and Preamended versions of HB10-1188, People v. Emmert, 1983 Opinion from AG Duane Woodard, and the Landowners/Property Rights Owners Perspective.
