State of Water in Colorado with Catherine Moravec

Water is a precious resource for Colorado’s households, yards, and gardens. In the semi-arid, drought-prone climate of El Paso County how can we balance using the incredible water systems our forerunners built and sustaining water resources for future generations? Catherine will provide an overview of where our water comes from, how communities are working to sustain and protect our water supplies, and what individuals can do to use water wisely. She’ll also cover resources and programs residents can use to enhance their yards and sprinkler systems.

Catherine has worked for Colorado Springs Utilities in the Water Conservation Group for the past fifteen years. She specializes in water wise landscaping and earned a M.S. in horticulture from the University of California at Davis plus a bachelor’s in biology from CU Boulder. She grew up in the Denver area.
