Colorado River Adaptive Management Program

The Colorado River Adaptive Management Program (CRAMP) is an initiative focused on balancing the river's ecosystem and the needs of water users across several states. Established in response to environmental changes and varying water supply demands, CRAMP involves collaborative efforts between government agencies, tribes, and stakeholders. Its goal is to develop strategies that support both wildlife habitats and water resource management, ensuring the river can sustainably support diverse needs while adapting to conditions like climate change and drought. The program emphasizes ongoing research, monitoring, and the incorporation of new scientific findings to inform decisions.
