Great Salt Lake Waterkeeper

The Great Salt Lake Water keeper works to address Utah leadership’s failure to protect the Great Salt Lake, the American West’s largest remaining wetland ecosystem. We’re working to implement policies that will raise Great Salt Lake water levels to 4,200 feet above sea level.

The Great Salt Lake Waterkeeper is sponsored by the Utah Rivers Council and we are part of the WATERKEEPER® Alliance, a global coalition of over 300 organizations comprised of water activists and environmentalists.
