The written proceedings of the Foundation’s 2009 Colorado River Symposium, “The Colorado River: Building a Sustainable Future.” This two-and-a-half day, invitation-only event held in September 2009 brought together some of the top policymakers in the Colorado River Basin. Symposium discussions focused on Mexico/U.S. issues; population growth; Colorado River augmentation; climate change; the energy-water supply connection and closed with a crystal ball panel discussion on alternative futures for the river. This 160-page, softbound book is a vital resource for universities, libraries and law schools, and a must-have for the serious Colorado River scholar.
