Lake Mead Water Quality Forum

The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) established the Lake Mead Water Quality Forum to protect public health and preserve the water quality of the Las Vegas Wash and Bay as well as Lake Mead.

There are a number of federal, state and local stakeholders involved in the process, and the Lake Mead Water Quality Forum brought those parties together to:

• Identify issues regarding water quality and impacts on the water supply
  
  
• Provide a forum to build consensus and share information
  
  
• Coordinate study efforts, provide technical updates and disseminate information to the public
  
  
• Serve as a clearinghouse on water quality issues and provide peer review
  
  
• Enhance the public input process
  
  
• Formulate further study work that may be necessary
