Do you want to protect the family-friendly Little Logan River form being high and dry in many summers?

Do you want the water in the river, and the dozen green spaces and parks to be safe? 

Algae, including deadly toxic algae, could choke the Little Logan River in >10 public spaces and parks if plans to reduce the flow of river water moves forward.  This threat is serious and real. 

ZERO water will flow if extreme or exceptional drought occurs.  That would be about one in four years if the last 24 years are representative.

The public has a right to open flowing water yet we may be given stagnant water instead.  

Stagnant water is already present in Merlin Olsen Fish Tunnel and we are monitoring there for algae growth. 

Mud covers Dr. Janecke's ankles in Merlin Olsen park summer 2025 due to very low flows there.  Tubing was not possible.  Even little kids had to settle for floating in an artificial pond they had constructed in the river bed.

LEASE OPPOSE THE LRWP and urge sponsors to lease their unused water right to the Great Salt Lake INSTEAD
