FRISCO, Colo.—Summit County is drawing up plans to deal with a historically low snowpack combined with an earlier-than-normal runoff that could force water restrictions.
The National Integrated Drought Information System has declared a severe drought in Summit County and the Colorado River Basin.
According to the Summit Daily ( ), snowpack levels in the basin are 33 percent of average, which is below the last memorable drought year of 2002.
A meeting is being held May 8 to discuss options. The event is sponsored by the Colorado River District and the Blue River Watershed Group.
