MILLS, Wyo. – The Bureau of Reclamation has scheduled a Boysen Reservoir Water Information Meeting at 1:00 p.m. on Monday, April 13, at the Worland Community Center Conference Room, located at 1200 Culbertson Ave. in Worland, Wyoming.

Discussion topics will include current water supply conditions, the 2026 snowmelt runoff forecast, and projected reservoir operations for 2026.

Located on the Wind River near Shoshoni, Wyoming, Boysen Dam provides irrigation, hydropower, flood control, municipal, industrial, and fish and wildlife benefits. Near Thermopolis, Wyoming, the name of the river changes from Wind River to Bighorn River. More than 60,000 acres of farmland in Wyoming receive their irrigation supply from the Bighorn River downstream of Boysen Dam.
