The impact report on the new Glade Reservoir is out from the Army Corps of Engineers. The report is allegedly on their website, http://www.usace.army.mil, but if you can find it, you are better than I.

Guess we will just have to take what the local papers said about it as fact. NoCoPolitics.com has links to the local articles.

While I personally support the reservoir, and understand the need for more water in Northern Colorado, I can certainly respect the position of the people who want to preserve the river. What I cannot understand, or condone, are the individuals complaining about the population growth. If you think there are too many people in Northern Colorado, MOVE. If you live here, you are part of the problem. This is America, new people have as much right to move in here as you did a year ago, your family did twenty years ago, or my family did 150 years ago. Water conservation and stemming population growth are nice ideas, but none of us would live here now if our forefathers hadn’t had the foresight to build reservoirs.
