Water resources management plan: Great Sand Dunes National Monument, Colorado

Chatman M, Sharrow D, Valdez A. 1997. Water resources management plan: Great Sand Dunes National Monument, Colorado

This Water Resources Management Plan presents a description of the current state of knowledge of the water resources of the Great Sand Dunes National Monument, specific objectives and legal requirements for their management, a discussion of the issues facing the Monument, and a program to address those issues. It is expected that the approaches to the immediate concerns will continue to evolve, while the value of this plan as a reference will be more enduring. In recognizing the need for both a regional approach to water resources management, and the need for site specific studies and monitoring, several actions are proposed in this plan, including ten for which project statements have been developed to seek additional funding.
