Colorado faces water supply gaps in many of the basins throughout the state. To meet those gaps aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) could play, key role in providing a means in which to store water in times of plenty for times of drought. As it is becoming increasingly difficult to identify new surface water storage projects, ASR has been identified as a viable opportunity to increase year-to-year storage capacity for water providers in the state. Recently an assessment of the aquifer storage potential in the state has been performed and is now being investigated at several locations within the state, including the Colorado Front Range. These studies identify new opportunities for storing water in order to meet future water needs.
