A new high-tech monitoring program is set to take shape in the headwaters of the Colorado and Gunnison rivers. The program will use a network of sensors, cameras – even drones – to give scientists the clearest picture of how the river gets its start high up in the Rocky Mountains. Plus, Public Lands Corner covers three projects receiving environmental analysis by the Bureau of Land Management in the Moab area. Tune in.
