Utah proposes to sign an agreement to permit the Southern Nevada Water Authority to pump
36,000 acre feet of water per year from Utah’s Snake Valley to Las Vegas. This deal could
devastate area ranching, wildlife and recreation, and turn this West Desert valley into a dust
bowl affecting the air quality and snowpack of the Wasatch Front.

The State will accept written comments through September 30, but will not hold any hearings
to gather oral comments on this draft agreement, so we invite the public to join the Utah
Association of Counties and the Great Basin Water Network for a Citizens’ Hearing on the
future of the Snake Valley on:

Wednesday, September 9th from 6:30 to 9:30 P.M.
At the Salt Lake County Government Complex
2100 South State Street, Room #N-2003.

Please Speak Out! Help us put the brakes on this flawed and rushed deal!
It’s our water and your air!
