In a presentation to the Legislative Water Development Commission on Tuesday, Utah Division of Water Resources Director Candice Hasenyager said our snowpack remains strong even with hotter temperatures forecast. Roughly 95% of Utah's water supply comes from snowpack.
Hasenyager said she did not have concerns right now about spring runoff. Some reservoirs are spilling right now, while Lake Powell still remains below average. In his own presentation, Great Salt Lake Commissioner Brian Steed said he expected the lake's water levels to drop again as we head into the summer. On Tuesday, one lawmaker defended his colleagues in the face of criticism about the Great Salt Lake.
