Water Quality Study

Efforts by federal, state, and local entities to assess and address pollution in Colorado are ongoing.  The results of the study are presented on the Abandoned Mines Water Quality Webportal. Red locations were visited and have water quality data, photos and completed field survey forms, unless these mines were not discharging water at the time of visitation. Yellow and Green locations provide mine name and locational information.
