Wayne Aspinall Unit: Colorado River Storage Project
The Wayne Aspinall Unit is one of four primary projects of the Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP). The other three projects include the Navajo Unit, the Flaming Gorge Unit, and the Glen Canyon Unit. The Wayne Aspinall Unit is on the Gunnison River in west-central Colorado. Originally called the Curecanti Unit, the project had its named changed to Wayne Aspinall Unit in 1980, in honor of the Colorado Congressman who promoted the CRSP. The Colorado River Storage Project, as a whole, manages the water resources of the Upper Colorado River Basin. The Wayne Aspinall Units primary purposes are water storage and hydroelectric power production, which it achieves through its three main features, Blue Mesa Dam, Morrow Point Dam, and Crystal Dam.
