The Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design (GRB LCD) began in 2015, through support from the Great Northern and Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs). The Green River Basin encompasses 124,578 km2, spanning sections of Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah. As a landscape of mixed public and private lands with a history of ranching and recreation, as well as a focal point for energy development today, the Green River Basin is complex both socially and ecologically. In the face of this complexity, charting a sustainable forward path that meets both the needs of human communities and maintains conservation priorities into the future will be a challenge.
