Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP)
Collectively, the NISP participants are taking a lead in water conservation by reducing their water usage by more than 30 percent in the past 20 years. Yet, the need for future water storage is real. We do understand the need to conserve but realize we must also increase our storage capacity. The project consists of:
- Two reservoirs (Glade and Galeton)
- A forebay reservoir
- Two pump plants
- Pipelines to deliver water for exchange with two irrigation companies
- Improvements to an existing canal to divert water off the Poudre River near the canyon mouth
