The future of extraordinary fishing on the Green River and on Flaming Gorge depends on support from sportsmen and women, community members, civic leaders, and everyday citizens alike.
Take action now to make sure this project is rejected, not just by the local residents of the area, but by regulatory agencies, state officials, and by concerned sportsmen and women across the West.
Proposed pipelines want to take billion gallons of water each year out of the Green River and Flaming Gorge, and pump it 560 miles to the Front Range of Colorado.

A proposed pipeline to divert billions of gallons of water from Wyoming and Utah to Colorado's Front Range threatens more than the world-class trout fishing in the Green River and Flaming Gorge Reservoir. It poses a threat to a series of small communities and a way of life. This video from TU and the Sportsmen's Conservation Project shows why.
In the fall of 2012 Trout Unlimited invited three world-class photographers to document the Flaming Gorge and the Green River. The result is a stunning documentary of an area in need of protection.
