By the year 2050, the population of the Northern Front Range will double. Water is a valuable and limited resource that we all need. Fort Collins-Loveland Water District is dedicated to preparing for the future and developing a smart and dependable water portfolio to ensure the water needs of all current and future customers is met.
FCLWD currently gets its water from the North Poudre Irrigation Company, Colorado-Big Thompson (C-BT) project, Josh Ames, Divide Canal and Reservoir Company, and Windsor Reservoir Company. While we have enough water for all existing customers in our service area, and for the growth we are currently experiencing, we will need an additional 8,000 acre-feet of water to meet the demand of our growing service area by 2032.
What’s an acre-foot? An acre-foot is equal to 325,851 gallons of water or one football field of water one foot deep.
What does the District do to protect against drought?
We’ve taken a hard look at our water portfolio to ensure we can consistently deliver water to you; no matter what Mother Nature delivers. Take a look at our Drought and Water Supply Summary.
