The Water Quality and Quantity Committee (QQ) includes towns, counties, and water and sanitation districts in the Headwaters Region of Colorado. Its purpose is to enable members to protect and enhance the quality of the region's waters, while facilitating the responsible use of those resources for the good of Colorado's citizens and environment.
QQ monitors water development activities and legislative initiatives that affect water quality or quantity in the basin of origin. The QQ Committee meetings provide a forum for members to formulate policies and strategies, and make decisions. The QQ staff provides members with legislative, informational, coordination, supportive and technical assistance to further intergovernmental cooperation and increase members' political clout with state and federal agencies.
