Crisis on the Colorado River
The Colorado River is in crisis. Once hailed the "American Nile," the river stretches 1,450 miles and provides drinking water, irrigation, and hydroelectric power to nearly 40 million people across seven states and northern Mexico. But after decades of prolonged drought and overuse, vital reservoirs along the river are drying up. USC experts Robin Craig and Shon Hiatt discuss the far-reaching impacts of Colorado River water shortages on the region's agriculture and energy industries. Read the full story on USC News. Robin Craig is the Robert C. Packard trustee chair in law at USC Gould School of Law. Shon Hiatt is an associate professor of Business Administration at USC Marshall School of Business.
