S. 1787

Dolores River National Conservation Area and Special Management Area Act

Energy and Natural Resources Committee · Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO)

23 July 2026  |  Reported by committee (Energy and Natural Resources, without amendment, without written report)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: The bill would establish a National Conservation Area and Special Management Area along the Dolores River in Colorado to protect its natural, recreational, scenic, cultural, and historical values. It would require management plans for both areas, permit Native American tribes to use the land for traditional ceremonies and gathering, protect the Ponderosa Gorge section by restricting roads and motorized access, and remove certain river segments from consideration for federal Wild and Scenic Rivers designation.
