In 1997, Colorado,
Wyoming, Nebraska and the Department of Interior formed a unique
partnership with the goal of developing a shared approach for managing the
Platte River. Water users from the three states and local and national
conservation groups joined the effort. Together, these stakeholders
developed an innovative approach for improving the management of the
Platte — for the health of the ecosystem and the people that depend on it.
The Platte River Recovery
Implementation Program is the result of that planning effort. The Program
is focused on implementing this shared vision for creating and maintaining
habitats on the Platte.
