Description:
Horsetooth Reservoir Watershed Target Area

Six priority watershed target areas have been identified. The priority watershed target areas were developed by looking for groups of red and orange ranked watersheds based on the final priority ranking. Then target areas were determined using 7th Level watersheds that have similar characteristics. These areas were then reviewed by CPRW and the stakeholder group and revised. The resulting areas are broader than just the red and orange ranked watersheds and include some lower ranked watersheds. These areas are designed to be targeted but inclusive enough to support moderate-scale projects.

This layer displays just one of these watersheds - Horsetooth Reservoir Watershed.

The priority watershed areas together include nearly 100 small watersheds and over 166,000 acres. These areas are still relatively broad targets. The analysis presented below attempts to use the results of the watershed resilience analysis to identify target watersheds and projects within the target areas.
