The USU Spring Runoff Conference is an annual gathering of the water community in Utah and the Intermountain West, providing a forum for agency, university, Extension, and professional partners to address western water issues, showcase research, and support collaboration. Spring Runoff is partnering with the Northern Utah Water Users For the 2024 conference, and the joint meeting will be held March 26-27, 2024. This two day conference will feature invited speakers, student presentations, and multiple opportunities to connect with partners.

This year's conference theme is Navigating Utah's Water Challenges Through Interdisciplinary Partnerships. This Conference highlights the nexus between policy, management, and research, combining the ways in which managers and researchers are responding to and answering key water management questions during a time of unprecedented challenges. What solutions can we put in place today while planning for the future? How do we adapt more quickly, and what hurdles do we face in creating a rapid response to accelerating environmental change?
