Welcome to Project 7 Water Authority

Image of water
The Project 7 Water Authority is a unique cooperative effort among seven water entities to provide high quality potable water to the municipalities and rural areas of the Uncompahgre River Valley.

The seven entities that represent the Project 7 Water Authority are:
  • The City of Montrose
  • The City of Delta
  • The Town of Olathe
  • The Tri-County Water Conservancy District
  • The Chipeta Water District
  • The Menoken Water District
  • The Uncompahgre Valley Water Users Association
The governing body of the Authority is a six member Board of Directors in which all legislative power of the Authority is vested. Blue are voting members (and also will take you to websites of these entities.)

The Authority was established on September 29, 1977, pursuant to the provisions of Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) 1973, 29-1-203.2, as a separate governmental entity to effect the treatment of raw water and transmission of finished water.

Project 7 Board meetings are the fourth Thursday of every month at 4:30 pm. No meetings in November or December.
