- River Network and CWCB Webinar: Stream Management Plans: 101 (Oct 20)
We’re excited to partner with the Colorado Municipal League on a Water Law 101 webinar. All are welcome and registration is free, but this webinar was designed particularly for municipal elected officials and managers.
Attendees will hear from Eric Potyondy, water attorney and Fort Collins assistant city attorney, and Susan Ryan, Holland and Hart of counsel who advises on water law. Eric and Susan will provide a foundation for better understanding the laws that encapsulate the water discussions happening in Colorado today, and how they are applied to water across the state.
