Values in RED indicate basins updated since previous statewide plan.  1  Wind/Bighorn River Basin industrial use and projections are based on water rights rather than actual consumption. This tends to overstate oil and gas industry use as well as other uses.  2  50-Year Projections.  3  Total groundwater depletions not directly estimated in 2010 Update.
