Aspen City Council declared a voluntary stage one water shortage in response to escalating drought conditions and the city’s limited water storage capacity. Aspen relies on surface water from Castle and Marron Creeks and does not have any major reservoirs, but only three to five days’ worth of treated water stored at a time.
