The Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute announces its next Newsmaker Breakfast, a monthly event highlighting the important events impacting Utah.
Utah ended the 2023 water year in September with higher-than-average accumulated precipitation. As a result, Great Salt Lake rose five and a half feet at the south arm of the lake after hitting a record low in Fall 2022. Critical issues remain, however, and policymakers continue to address how best to protect and preserve Great Salt Lake and its ecosystem.
Join decision-makers and policy experts as they provide an update on Great Salt Lake, present new policy proposals, discuss the impact of the 2023 water year, and outline the next steps for Utah leaders to consider.
The conversation will be moderated by Gardner Institute director Natalie Gochnour. Media are invited to attend and ask questions.
