Colorado may buy the Shoshone Power Plant water rights, which are owned by Xcel Energy.
The Colorado Sun reported that the Colorado Water Conservation Board voted Monday to commit $20 million toward the $98.5 million cost of the rights, which will become available after the utility closes the power plant and no longer needs the water to operate.
