Water Resources Management Plan for Great Sand Dunes National Monument, Colorado
Located in the south central Colorado, Great Sand Dunes National Monument contains the tallest dunes in North America, rising over 700 feet above the San Luis Valley floor. This dune system is very complex and provides excellent opportunities to witness eolian geology. This Water Resources Management Plan presents a description of the current state of knowledge of the water resources of the 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 he 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.
