Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission

The Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission is an Executive branch agency of the federal government. The Commission was established in late 1994 and early 1995. The Commission was authorized under the Central Utah Project Completion Act of 1992. The Act set terms and conditions for completing the Central Utah Project, which diverts stores and delivers large quantities of water from numerous Utah rivers to meet the needs of central Utah's citizens. CUPCA requires the Commission to adopt an annual Mitigation and Conservation Plan that sets out the Commission's priorities for implementing mitigation measures and programs required by the Act.
