Denver Water’s new lawn-watering ban takes effect today — and fines start at $500 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Denver Water customers are banned from watering their lawns starting Thursday, and the state’s largest utility is threatening steep fines for those who break the drought-induced rule. The prohibition outlaws lawn watering and the use of spray irrigation at the start of October for the rest of the warm season, though customers can still hand-water trees, shrubs, flowers and vegetables. Residential customers who break the rule once will face a $500 fine. The fine increases to $1,000 for each subse
State will temporarily stop killing wolves that prey on livestock as Colorado’s population falters (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Colorado Parks and Wildlife will temporarily stop killing wolves that repeatedly prey on livestock — in most cases — as the state’s population of the controversial canines falters. Colorado’s wildlife leaders pivoted Wednesday on their default wolf management policy as the success of the three-year-old reintroduction program faces several threats: a high mortality rate, an inability to source new wolves and the possibility of parasites among two of the state’s five packs. While the change is aim
A private ranch that wants 2,000 acres of federal land in Colorado has spent $200,000 to lobby a congressman (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A wealthy ranch owner’s land exchange proposal — which would privatize thousands of acres of public land in Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley — has rankled locals, who say they have been left in the dark and that the deal would sidestep normal regulatory processes. Under the proposal, Out of Bounds Ranch would swap approximately 2,100 acres of private land north of Rifle for a similarly-sized parcel of federal public land adjacent to the ranch property near Carbondale. The ranch’s owners have worke
As feds remove hundreds of wild horses from Colorado, state leaders decry ‘inhumane’ helicopter roundups (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A federal operation is removing hundreds of wild horses from western Colorado in the largest helicopter roundups in the state in several years, a tactic that has prompted criticism from state leaders and advocates. Since early August, contractors for the Bureau of Land Management gathered and shipped off 880 horses from the Piceance-East Douglas Herd Management Area west of Meeker. This week, the agency plans to begin a roundup to remove 245 horses from the Sand Wash Basin Herd Management Area w
Coloradans were exposed to radiation for decades. Now Congress might make them eligible for compensation. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New legislation in Congress would make Coloradans who became ill after living near two of the state’s nuclear sites eligible for tens of thousands of dollars in federal compensation. A proposed expansion of the 1990 Radiation Exposure Compensation Act would recognize the Cotter uranium mill near Cañon City and the former Rocky Flats nuclear weapons plant northwest of Denver as Manhattan Project waste sites. The designation would open the door for people who live or have lived in 57 zip codes nea
