PWRE is proud to announce that we have been awarded a new Task Order to continue work in supporting Oklahoma City in optimizing its raw water system planning and management. PWRE is grateful for the opportunity to continue our work alongside Brown & Caldwell and Nazarenus Stack & Wombacher on behalf of Oklahoma City!
Precision Water Resources Engineering Selected for Great Salt Lake Basin Study Modeling Services
We are proud to announce our selection, alongside teaming partner Hydros Consulting Inc., to provide modeling services for the Great Salt Lake Basin Study — one of the most significant water resources planning efforts in the western United States.
Awarded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Provo Area Office in partnership with the Utah Division of Water Resources, this project tasks the Hydros-Precision team with developing the Great Salt Lake Basin River Planning Model (GSL-RPM) in RiverWare™. The model will simulate operations across the Bear River, Weber River, Utah Lake, Jordan River, and Great Salt Lake systems, serving as the primary decision-support tool for evaluating water management alternatives under both historical and projected future climate conditions — directly informing the Great Salt Lake Basin Integrated Plan (GSLBIP).
Precision brings exceptional institutional knowledge to this effort. Our team developed several of the existing RiverWare models that will form the GSL-RPM's foundation. Combined with our work on in the Truckee River and Colorado River basins, we are uniquely positioned to deliver a world-class planning model for this critically important basin.
The Great Salt Lake has experienced dramatic declines in recent decades, making this project not just a technical milestone but an urgent environmental and economic priority for Utah and the broader region. We are honored to contribute alongside our partners at Hydros Consulting, Reclamation, and UDWRe.
New Project for the State of Wyoming
We are excited to announce Precision will partner with Follum Hydrologic Solutions to estimate transit losses for the State of Wyoming in the Green River Basin. We are thrilled to work with FHS and the wonderful folks at the Wyoming State Engineer’s Office to address novel and challenging questions in a critical watershed.
New contract with the Colorado Authority of Utah
We are thrilled to announce that we have signed a new contract with the Colorado Authority of Utah to continue the development of the UCRAF suite of models. We are once again partnering with Follum Hydrologic Solutions of Casper Wyoming to develop models for the Ashley Creek, Brush Creek and mainstem Green and Colorado Rivers all the way down to Lake Powell. We are very grateful for another opportunity to partner the Authority. Successful projects are always a team effort and we could not ask for a more knowledgeable and responsive client. We look forward to two more years working on this exciting project.
Our 2025 Annual Precision Team Gathering
We are so thankful to get together again as a team to take another trip down the river this summer!
Colorado River Authority of Utah Work Continues
Precision is continuing its work with the Colorado River Authority of Utah to evaluate conservation methods across Utah's portion of the Colorado River Basin. Central to this effort is the Utah Colorado River Accounting and Forecast Decision Support Tool (UCRAF-DST), developed to assess and compare conservation activities within the Basin. The tool features an Esri ArcPro-based interface that quantifies consumptive water use, models reductions to that use, and simulates the resulting flows to downstream destinations, including Lake Powell. This engagement is ongoing through June 2027.
CUWCD Continued Support
Precision is continuing its engagement with the Central Utah Water Conservancy District through June 2030, providing professional services focused on evaluating the District's water management capabilities. As part of this work, Precision will develop and maintain RiverWare models at short-, mid-, and long-term scales, delivering state-of-the-art tools to support the District's operational and planning needs.
Precision Team Rafting Trip!
Precision hosted our fifth annual company gathering with a day on the Colorado River, guided by two of our very own team members! The water was smooth and the sun was bright as we bonded as a team and celebrated a year of hard work. We look forward to the coming year!
