AMP Insights worked with the Water in the West program at Stanford University’s Woods Institute for the Environment to design and implement a scoring and ranking of Colorado River Basin states’ legal approaches to approving environmental water transfers and protecting approved environmental flows.

This project began with funding from the Pisces Foundation to develop metrics for assessing cost-effectiveness of environmental water transactions in an effort to create standards and protocols for adoption as part of the California Water Bond process and by other regional transaction efforts.

AMP Insights recently completed a socio-economic analysis of EPA investments aimed at improving water quality in four priority watersheds in the Great Lakes Basin as part of a program evaluation effort undertaken by the Great Lakes Commission, contracted to the EPA.
