Below is a brief overview of projects that we are currently involved with or have advocated for in the past. See the complete list of our projects under the Projects Menu.
Illegal dumping and improper disposal of solid waste has been a commonly recognized problem in the San Luis Valley. SLVEC is here to help.
For over a decade, SLVEC has been working to moderate the impacts of motorized vehicle use in the Rio Grande National Forest and BLM lands that surround the Valley.
For over a dozen years SLVEC has worked to protect sensitive habitat threatened by a large development on Wolf Creek Pass.
We are involved in investigating Renewable Water Resources. We encourage the protection of water quality and ongoing well testing for the San Luis Valley.
