The Central Wasatch Commission has released the be The Central Wasatch Commission has released the beta version of the Environmental Dashboard to the public for review, exploration, and comment.

The Environmental Dashboard is a tool for the public, land managers, policy makers and technical users to learn about the historic and current environmental conditions of the Central Wasatch. The Dashboard contains five environmental elements: air quality and climate, geology and soil, vegetation communities, water, and wildlife, and existing data for each element has been gathered and presented for public access. The boundaries for this environmental dashboard project are based on naturally occurring hydrologic units (or drainage areas) and are independent of the Central Wasatch Commission’s jurisdictional boundary.

Stakeholders and the public are invited to attend a presentation and discussion forum on the Beta Environmental Dashboard scheduled for April 20, 2022, 3:00 p.m.; and April 27, 2022, 5:30 p.m. Both discussion forums will take place virtually over Zoom.

At the link in our bio, you may access more information about the beta Environmental Dashboard, an overview video, and you may comment on the Dashboard, now through May 4, 2022.

The final version of the Environmental Dashboard is scheduled for rollout during the June 6, 2022 meeting of the Central Wasatch Commission Board. Learn more on the CWC website: cwc.utah.gov
