The Executive Water Finance Board, created in 2017 by Gov. Gary R. Herbert to review the fiscal and economic implications of state water projects, will hold meetings in St. George March 22 and 23 to review and collect public input on the financial and economic aspects of the Lake Powell Pipeline project. The meetings are free and open to the public.
The Lake Powell Pipeline is a water delivery project that could transport more than 84,000 acre feet of water per year from Lake Powell to Washington and Kane counties. The meetings will cover the status of the project, financial issues, population projections, and existing water usage. Residents unable to attend in person can submit a comment online.
The first meeting will take place March 22 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Dixie High School, Lecture Hall 100. The school is located at 350 E 700 S in St. George.
The second meeting will be held March 23, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Washington County Water Conservancy District, located at 533 E. Waterworks Dr. in St. George.
