Since 2000, the Colorado River Basin has experienced its lowest 16-year period of inflow in over 100 years of record keeping that began in 1895. The impacts are visible in the receding reservoir levels across the Colorado River Basin. The Upper Colorado River Basin states are designing strategies to avoid a drop in Lake Powell’s water level that would impact hydropower generation at Glen Canyon Dam, as well as their ability to maintain minimum flow obligations for the Lower Basin and Mexico. The Upper Basin’s three-tiered “drought contingency plan” involves a reservoir re-operations component that calls for the Upper Basin’s three large Colorado River Storage Project facilities upstream of Lake Powell – Navajo, Aspinall, and especially Flaming Gorge reservoirs – to commence additional releases if critical levels at Lake Powell are anticipated. This paper evaluates the reservoir re-operations component of the Upper Basin’s drought contingency plan and explores both short-term and longer-term options for bolstering its overall effectiveness. While reservoir re-operations can have a meaningful short-term impact, improving the accuracy of modeling baselines by staging a wet-year pilot run and recognizing reservoir re-operations as a single component of the larger Upper Basin drought contingency plan can help strengthen the planned drought response efforts. Forming new collaborative water-sharing agreements and undertaking infrastructural modifications can extend the Upper Basin’s ability to maintain minimum flows at Lee Ferry over a longer period than currently possible. Identifying alternative funding sources for hydropower revenue-dependent programs and mitigating our role in driving the hydrologic uncertainty prompting the Upper Basin’s drought contingency plan can act as proactive long-term solutions.

The New York Times bestselling work of undercover reportage from our sharpest and most original social critic, with a new foreword by Matthew Desmond, author of Evicted Millions of Americans work full time, year round, for poverty-level wages. In 1998, Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them. She was inspired in part by the rhetoric surrounding welfare reform, which promised that a job—any job—can be the ticket to a better life. But how does anyone survive, let alone prosper, on $6 an hour? To find out, Ehrenreich left her home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find, and accepted whatever jobs she was offered. Moving from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, she worked as a waitress, a hotel maid, a cleaning woman, a nursing-home aide, and a Wal-Mart sales clerk. She lived in trailer parks and crumbling residential motels. Very quickly, she discovered that no job is truly "unskilled," that even the lowliest occupations require exhausting mental and muscular effort. She also learned that one job is not enough; you need at least two if you int to live indoors. Nickel and Dimed reveals low-rent America in all its tenacity, anxiety, and surprising generosity—a land of Big Boxes, fast food, and a thousand desperate stratagems for survival. Read it for the smoldering clarity of Ehrenreich's perspective and for a rare view of how "prosperity" looks from the bottom. And now, in a new foreword, Matthew Desmond, author of Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City, explains why, twenty years on in America, Nickel and Dimed is more relevant than ever.
