Hi,

The NISP train is steamrolling forward toward a huge new Poudre River diversion project with the recent release of the Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (SDEIS). Time to submit SDEIS comments is very short. Could you please post that Save The Poudre is hosting a community meeting next Tuesday, July 14, 5:30-7:30 pm, at Avogadro’s Number to get the facts out and rally opposition to this huge, misguided project.

Here’s the link: http://savethepoudre.org/events-calendar.html

The proposed project would not affect boating flows in the canyon (thank goodness!) but will have big negative effects downstream, including on the # of boatable days and flows at the future Fort Collins whitewater park.

I can send the poster for the meeting as a JPG or PDF if you could post it on the Rock Report page.

Thanks!
Doug

Crazy, on my morning run I witnessed a rise in the Riv from a 3.75 when running down past the Rock, to 3.8 when running back home, and then on way to work stopped to check and it was 3.9. In the course of 1 hour it came up that much.
