The Utah Rivers Council is a 501(c)(3) non-profit working to protect Utah’s rivers and the ecosystems and communities they support. The Utah Rivers Council is a grassroots organization dedicated to the conservation and stewardship of Utah’s rivers and sustainable clean water sources for Utah’s people and wildlife. 

Over the last 32+ years, we’ve advocated for fiscal responsibility in Utah’s water sector, tax relief for hardworking Utahns, and policies that will protect Utah’s most precious resource: water. We believe that embracing the heart of conservatism – conservation – is the key to Utah’s economic and environmental future. Founded in 1994, we work to protect Utah’s rivers and clean water sources for today’s citizens, future generations and healthy, sustainable natural ecosystems.
