FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) - An environmental review of the proposed expansion of a Fort Collins reservoir is moving forward after a decision was made to consider it separately from a Greeley water project.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers plans to consider the city’s proposal to more than double the storage capacity of Halligan Reservoir as a separate project rather than in combination with Greeley’s proposal to enlarge its reservoir.

Both reservoirs are on the North Fork of the Poudre River.



The Fort Collins Coloradoan reports (https://tinyurl.com/ovssajq) the projects have been combined under the Corps’ review process since 2006 when the cities formally proposed enlarging the reservoirs to meet future water demand.
